Hi guys,
is there someway to use the recorded notice and convert that to a wav file ? I got several music recorded live with the XDA and now i need a conversion to .wav files
regards

Oh well, it was only a matter of time before they started confiscating phones at rock concerts... I hope you used a decent mike and high sampling rate...
There is no easy way to convert between Note format and wav format. However if you were just recording audio then Notes should have saved the files in wav format anyway...

hello, developers.
is there any way to put mp3's on my device, but change them into a smaller file? convert them to different extention?
You could re-sample them to a lower bitrate (Google: "resampling mp3"), or play them from a large SD-card.
I compress all my Mp3's using X-ing MPEG Encoder (now owned by real).
I use the 64kbs setting with small loss in quality over CDs, but I can fit humongous amounts of MP3's into 64Mb. However I use 128Mb SD cards for more storage and can compress an entire feature film down to 70Mb!!
Windows Media Player 9 will automatically copy and resample files to any portable music device or card. Works great. I resample everything to WMA 64k, get double the space with little quality loss. It does this via playlists, so it is easy to switch your music around.
thanks rustek.
but where did you get this x-ing mpeg encoder?
Hi,
if you have windows media player 8.5 on your xda, then you should be able to play mp3 and wma files.
You can actually get good quality sound out of a compressed wma file, at 64 bit rate or lower
use www.dbpowerAmp.com tool to covert the source file to any bit rate you want. Follow the codec insallation on the website.
i managed to get a 5mb mp3 file, down to a 900k wma file, and it sounded very reasonable on the xda.
For low bitrate WMA is the way to go. Keep your eye's on Windows Media Player for support for MP3pro, this is on par with the WMA encoding rates v quality.
hi all,
does anyone have a cab file of any mp3 player? i left my cable at home so im planning to install it from other PDA.
thanks! :lol:
hello people....
i was just wondering... what do you personally think is the best quality/smallist to encode MP3's and MPEG's into?
I find it really hard to judge which is more important:
good quality sound on your ppc?
or
Small size....so it doesn't waste a lot of memory
any idea?
thanks

I've found the sound quality through the headphone to be `not that bad`, just wish they'd stop falling out! I convert all my audio into Windows Media Audio Format (WMA) I find the sound quailty at lower bit rates to be better than MP3 (it's only an opinion).
so I'd say for MP3 go for a bit rate of 96kbps.
and for WMA go for 64kbps.
You can download a small utility from Microsoft called Audio Converter, this gives you options as to what bit rate the converted file will be regardless of the original. Watch out though, if the original was poor quailty, it could make it worse.
Hope that helps.
yeah thanks......
i have already got windows media encoder......it is awesome
i just cant find the balance....
any one got any ideas about video's
thanks
jay
video dont use mpg or wmf use divx avi very nice quality and little file size u can get a full 2hour30min film into 170mb at 200kbs full screen
does anyone know how to use mp3 files as ring tones? is it possible?
you need to use Mp3 to wav converter and convert the mp3 to a wav file, then put the wav file under \Windows\Rings and it will work...but take note, its pretty big after conversion to wav
hence why i wanted to use mp3s as ringtones rather than wavs in the first place
Is there no way that you can trick the software into accepting the mp3 file as a wav?! Ive tried using a .wav extention, but that doenst seem to work either.

not possible at all...you must put the wav into Windows\Rings directory then go to select the ring tone as your default ringing tone..it should work just fine
Ofcourse it wouldn't be that hard for someone like the maker of PhonExt to create a program that wil let you run whatever you want when someone calls...
you can convert them to WMA which it makes the files smaller than MP3 and they sound just as good. that is of course if you have WM2003
You can use dbpowerAmp.com to convert the wav files into smaller bitrate, mono channels etc. This will make the file sizes much smaller... however, quality will start to suffer.

Yorch, what program do you use to convert the mp3 files to wma??
brilliant then! problem solved. i can just use WMA.
I convert mp3s to WMA via "Windows Movie Maker". Simply drag the mp3 onto the timeline, then save the "movie" as a WMA.
dbpowerAmp is an excellent solution (and FREE) and super easier to use. Now if you happen to have the XP Plus Media Edition, it comes with a little prog that lets you convert audio back and forth, very easy.
By the way anything that you convert to 64Kbps on a WMA will come with excellent quality as a ringtone.
You can also use the free Windows Media Encoder to convert Mp3 to wma.
With this great utility you can also directly convert all your movies ,divx etc to wmv pocket pc format!!!

There is not a piece of software for ppc2002 that does is job good.
Simply convert them to wav with this great tool
:lol: 8)
Wow!
three years later
:lol:
i surfed the forum a bit and i haven't found a solution for my question ... or i missed it.
there are some rules for create a wan and use as ringtone ?
i mean , mono, bitrate , etc etc
i ask this because i want to put two wav files , one for telephone and one for SMS. i edited the files , and saved them as wav file 11khz 8 bit mono
but i can't play them on the qtek1010.
maybe they are too long ? 15 seconds
Hello there;->
w ll i guess its not the size.
I using a selfmade .wav from Dave Clarke ( Underground, House, Techno )
and it is about 1minute long and 5MB big;-)
Workes perfectlty
peace
SPVlover, are you aware you can convert your wav file to a WMA and use that instead?
You'll end up with a much smaller file which sounds just as good.

I use Nero Wave Editor, but Windows Media Player will do it if you use the 'copy to cd or portable device' function with your XDA/XDAII in the cradle.
There's also heaps of media converters on the net - Google search "convert wav to wma" +free and you'll find a plethora of them.

thnaks. i'm using dbPowerAmp Music Converter now. its a freeware!
This is a good converter, just convert a whole mp3 folder in one click to wav.
And the size of the wav files is realy minimum so it saves some space
My phone system e-mails me my voicemails as WAV file attachments (doesn't support anything else). Apparently WP8 does not natively support playback of these files. I have installed an app that will play them but it doesn't seem to be accessible from within the e-mail app. Anyone have a suggestion on how to playback WAV received in an e-mail?
I can directly play them from the email attachment.. No need for additional apps..
Just tap it once to download the *.wav attachment and when the download finished tap it again to play the *.wav file...
Evidently there are a few different WAV encoding or encapsulations. Not every voicemail system uses the same one. In fact, Windows Phone 7 used to play a friend of mine's voicemail system's WAV files just fine, but his new Windows Phone 8 won't.
If you find a WAV that works, and one that doesn't, opening it in something like Audacity can tell you if there is something funky like a bit rate or some other audio compression CODEC that might render it unplayable. Doesn't help unless they can convert to MP3 or something...
There are tons of threads about this over here:

Great...I'm NEVER going to get my users off iPhone as long as I have to hunt down workarounds for simple things like this.
Voice mails on WAVE?
That is such a waste of bandwidth, when the same could've been done on mp3 or amr format.
But seriously, why all this limitations with file formats on Windows Phone 8? It is ridiculous.
Same issue here. Really shameful and makes me wonder why I trusted MS and WP8 in the first place.
WAV is just a container format, like AVI. Most of the time, WAV is used for uncompressed PCM data, but it's possible to shove pretty much anything in there, including MP3 and various oddball formats. Saying that a given piece of software doesn't play back WAV is an invalid complaint. Figure out what's inside the WAV file, and then complain about that.
