converting music (1 Viewer)

[chip]

hey guys i dont know if this is in the right section but i have a music test i d/l but my computer won't let me burn it because it isnt compatible or something so is it possible to convert a windows media player file to a mp3 file?

Just do a search on download.com.

Im sure there will be plenty of converters.

wma to mp3 at download.com

Hope this helps

Use Winamp 2.x to do it. Select "MP3 Writer" output plugin (in Options -> Preferences), and open & play the WMA file.

classic.winamp.com

About the burning, Nero lets me burn wma's as audio cds (and also mp3's of course), without having to convert them to wav beforehand (as was the case in the past).

Nero would let me burn wma's as data and audio cds, just thought you'd know (unless you've tried that and somehow it didn't work )

yeah, nero is heaps good.

somehow when I use Roxio, or Adaptec, the *.mp3 files don't work with my mp3/cd player

any clues?

Some of the mp3s i download dont play as nicely on my mp3/cd player, so I run them through MMJB's Convert option, and that usually fixes it.
But burn with Nero. Adaptec did weird things to the order that I wanted things on the cd (like - with 120 songs, puts them in damn alphabetic order, rather than cd/track number)

What version are u using of nero, 5.5 works for me, or 6 i'm pretty sure would have no problems at all ?

Nero 5 and 6 work fine for me
but none of the adaptec ones work.

I got told there's a setting in adaptec, but not sure which one.
