How can make midi and mp3 melodies work as ringtone in WM2005!
Hard reset do not not work the same like in previous versions!!!
It's possible use .mid and .mp3 as ringtone??
HOW???
HELP...
why don't you just convert the desired mp3 to wma and use that? filesizes will go down from a few megs to 50+ k.

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:
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!!!

Wow!

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
I know it is possible to use MP4 audio files as ringtones on the XDA2! How do I set up MP4 ringtones for the XDA1? I can currently run MIDI, WMA and WAV ringtones!
Hi, I've searched for info on how to use .wav files for ringtones and have found only midi/polphonic files etc, of which I'm not to sure of how to do. I've tried moving some .wav files into the rings folder but all I get is a bip when I try it. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong and how to resolve this would be much appreciated. Thanks
they need to be PCM wav files
Thanks Rudegar. PCM is what? Is there a program that will convert standard .wav files to PCM .wav files. I'll do a search on the forum for info also.
Peace.
Pulse code modulation, shortly PCM is the standard wav file :wink: . You might have tried a wav file with some kind of compression, and wm2002 cant handle that. In wm2003, you can use windows media also. Thats good if you want to have music as ringtones. Just put the .wma into the ringtones folder.
