Hi
I have an xda 2.
Ever since I installed/uninstalled winamp beta it, my phone will not play wav files anymore. I have tried adjusting the wav file assocation in pocket tweak however as windows media player does not play this, what does?
Is there a quick fix to restore this setting?
Has anyone else encountered this before?
Stevo
no i've used both versions of the winampaq and i never noticed any wav issues
will it not play wav at all ?
will it not start windows mediaplayer when you doubleclick on wav files ?
will windows mediaplayer not play wav any more ?
No it will not play wav at all. Btw I don't think windows media player plays wavs at all or am I wrong?
Lets forget what program messed up the settings. I just need to know how to restore the phone or system as the default wav player.
What application is normally responsible?
if it cant play wav files in sounds and notifications in systems
then i think there is more amiss then just a associating issue
because it should not depend on that
if you open up your power tweak (assuming you have it installed) can you tell me what application is associated with "wav" file type.
hi all... would like to ask something:
i have few wav files (for ringtones) that wont play in my mini.. they are ringtones files and play normal in my desktop pc. the sizes are normal too.. i dont understand why certain .wav files fail to play in my mini. any suggestion how to fix those files?? thanks alot.
I think they need to be PCM-format wavs.
Windows Sound Recorder (in Programs, Accessories, Entertainment on the PC) will save them in this format. You can also adjust various other settings for size / quality.
I have a T-Mobile MDA VARIO, I really wanted my Bluetooth headset adapter to work with my phone using A2DP etc.. It worked and the upgrade has improved the phone no end... except.. I can only use the windows default ring tone.
All the other ring tones (fantasy, jig etc.. ) are in the Windows directory, but saved as wma files rather than wav and they just wont play..
I have tried to convert the wma file and delete the originals, but the files are in the readonly ROM!!!
Has anyone else had this issue? Do you know how to resolve it?? HELP... thanks
you need the cab that makes this possible.
See the Wizard wiki on extended ROM's fro it.
In the T-Mobile explanation is the answer on which cab you need.
Thanks edsub.. tried installing the usa t-mobile and the NL cab, but still does not work...
UPDATE : WORKING!! Thanks edsub.. Needed to re-associate the wav and mp3 files with Windows Media player, all ok now... Maybe I did not need the cab file, all I needed to do is use RESCO Explorer to associate the music files with Media player rather than imusic, which it was previously set to
(i have a cingular 8125 with a 2gb mini sd card) ok.. so i have the movie on my computer.. i have shrunk it to bout 800mb.. and it opens with quicktime.. quicktime doesn't have the right codec to play it therefor i downloaded VLC.. a program which supports it and will play the movie.. the aspect ratio is 320X240 but from here i don't know what to do.. i'm kinda new at this but would love to learn do i need to download any applications on my phone or will windows media player support it..
What you need is . . . . .
Pocket DivXEncoder : http://www.pdagold.com/software/detail.asp?s=1224
and . . . .
TCPMP : http://tcpmp.corecodec.org/about
Pocket DivXencoder allows you to convert the files and TCPMP allows you to play the files. Both are freeware. A 90 minute movie will come out at about 200Mb.
the movie is on my mac.. not my pc.. and i don't know how to get it off of it because the quciktime movie has to be opened with VLC for it to play

Ahh....the trials and tribulatioins of us superior beings....
Well, to make this short, you basically have 3 options to choose from.
1. Use an adapter to transfer the files directly to the card. You will need 2 adapters actually. One for mini SD ->SD and another to connect SD-> USB. This is probably the easiest and most straight forward method
2. Get MissingSync for WindowsMobile. This option is only valid if you want to also sync playlists with iTunes and PIM information with iCal and Address Book. The reliability of large transfers is sketchy but I think it works very well on newer Macs.
3. "That's what you got wifi for" If you Mac is connected to a network that has a wireless access point somewhere on it. You can "download" the movie from you Mac over wifi. I have done this a few times to get around the sketchiness of MissingSync. You can also transfer the file from your Mac to your PC and use ActiveSync.
Hope this helps. I can give you more info. After you pick a specific option.
hahaha, I love how mac people have to use WINDOWS Mobile... Where is your Mac OS Mobile? Hmmmm....?
hahaha
how to transfer > 220MB file to MDA
hi,
just download the program and converted 1 movie to about 220mb. I used activeSync to transfer files to MDA. For some reason, it can't be synchronized. Can anyone let me know how to transfer it from pc to MDA.
Thanks
when dealing with big files you should go purchase a card reader makes it 10x easier...check out my site in the sig for videos, ringtones and more.
Or you can just get a program like Card Export II which lets your Wizard (8125) act like a thumb drive and you can just drag the file to your storage card.
I use Card Export II and it works great on my Macbook Pro.
Pocket DVD Studio:
It allows you to rip just about any DVD to any size. You can make Windows Media files or .AVI files (which I prefer). You make them in the range of 125m to 225megs and you can fit a dozen movies on a 2g chip.
For the .AVI, you'll have to get a CODEC file for your PC, but that's free (XviD 1.0), and you'll have to download a different player than WM, but BetaPlayer, that they also provided free, is a FAR nicer player than WM. You don't have playlists and transfers and all that nonsense. You simply open the file you want and play it. Also BetaPlayer will go to Landscape mode just by tapping the screen. I just found out they now call it: TCPMP (and I see they have it for SmartPhones--wonder if it will run on my Samsung D-820?)
It's at PQDVD.com.

I don't know...you need a different util to create .3gp files. They make one, but there's another called Super @ that is shareware. It's tricky to use but does work. You have to play with settings.
thanks.. i was wanting to put it on my card.. and then just play it from my phone.. but the mac won't play the avi file because it doesn't have the right codec.. so i have VLC on my mac and it will play on the mac.. and i don't know where to go from there.. if i put it on the card i didn't think windows media player would play it.. i don't know the step by step procedure.. i'm new at this so just call me blonde..
Dude....

TCPMP will play .3gp just fine. I think that the WMP version on the Wizard may also play .3gp since you can save your cam movies in that format. .3gp is a mobile version of h.264 or actually I think its actual name is h.263. Anyway if you get QuicktimePro (look for a serial code online). You can encode/transcode just about anything into that format. Oddly enough it even works on files that Quicktime claims it can not play.

Cool, I used to use these files on my old P900 and they seemed to compres really well...have to experiment a bit....
Mac Vidoe Converting
we macusers rock, and u just need visualhub, it does the job in about 15 minutes, in any code in any size, and of course, use tcmp for watching it on your ppc.
go versiontracker and grab visualhub
drag and drop the file ( whatever ist is) into it, choose the output size and codec and click run, u can send it dircetly to your storage card by choosing the output folder.
Hi all,
Anyone has come across an issue that WM6 Media Player can't play certain .wav files? How can fix this bug (if it is a bug)?. I have an answering service and they send my messages to my phone by email in .wav file and I can't open it with WM6 Media player error:Unrecognized file type. Any suggestions?
Thanx,
Genek
No one really has a clue?
Have you pulled the files from the phone and tried to play them on the computer?
Remember, .wav is just a 'container' for a sound file, the actual encoding could be just about anything (PCM, MP3, MPEG2 Audio, etc).
WM6 and .WAV
.WAV is not a native windows file. For this reason you are unable to play them on and WM PPC. You need to download either a player that will decode WAV or install a Codec to play .WAV files. .WMA is the default windows audio file.
Pain I know - but I think it has something to do with MS not wanting to pay for licensing for .wav playback.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong =)
