Ring Tones using MP3

:lol: can I set MP3 song as ring tones at XDA II.

I hope somebody answers this one yes

No - but you can convert it to WAV or WMA

:lol: Thanks.

How do you get it to play a wma as a ringtone ?

With the WMA loaded on your XDA...
Start - Settings - System Tab - Add New Ringtone
Check the Tone(s) you want, click OK

take it easy...
or just simply copy it to \windows\rings...

Can I have ringtones stored on memory card?
I just dont want to have 20 WMA files in main memory...

Ring tones on SD cards
Ring tones are used when your MDA gets awaken (phone call, alarm) and this needs to be pretty fast. Therefore you cannot use a card memory card. Many applications assigned to hardware keys stored on the memory card fail.

MP4 Ring Tones
You can use MP4 for ring tone. I've used Quicktime to convert mp3's to mp4 format. Hope that help!

I have ringtones stored on memory card of XDAII with no problems

Sorry to spoil your fun but check your \windows\rings folder. Whatever ringtone you selected will be copied into that folder before you can use it. You are actually carrying two copies if you think your tones are on the memory card!

Hi folks - this is my first post, so forgive any ignorance of any rule I have missed.
Can I just ask, I'm used to my trusty E200...
Can you set individual ringtones, for specific contacts, on the XDA2, like you can on the E200 Smartphone?
Thanks.
And is it easy to get rid of the O2 Active homescreen/today screen customisation, and use it like a proper PocketPC ?

Ring tones us wav
I had convert the MP3 songs (4 MB) to wav files, is about 30 MB, so I use sound recorder (come with Windows) to trim off the file to about first 40 seconds to reduce the files sizes (5MB), since when phone rings, it will automatic stop at about 30+ seconds when nobody answer the call.

Why leave them as wav's though mate? That's where you are going wrong.
Once you have the section you want and have saved this as a wav, then convert it to a tiny little wma file to use as a ringtone - usually around just 500K for a 40 second tone in 96Kps quality - you can even use 64Kps to make them even smaller in filesize.
See below for some examples of the ones I have done. Dance songs make good choices because of the long instrumentals that allow full 40 second tones etc.

Shadamehr
you have a point but i have some WAV files with excellent quality sound on a 22KH and 16BIT have the same size as the WMA files.
I mean you have a good solution there but it doesnt differ allot from my point of view. And i dont see why you need to play an MP3 file as a Ringtone while you only need 30sec of music if you creat an Mp3 for that time it wont differ from the WMA or WAV file size.
So i think a WAV file created with a good software (NERO) will give you a good quality small sound and WMA also...

I don't think ANYONE can or will agree with you about the use of wav's mate as being as small.
Simply put, as wma, or mp3, or mp4 are 'advanced' audio formats, then in short simple terms, WHATEVER you can get, sounding good, at whatever quality you opt for, as a wav file, can be saved as a wma file of the same or even better quality, always at a smaller actual file size.
That's why it's used mate.
Except for one caveat... If you prefer TOTAL PERFECT quality music, then saving as a high bitrate wav file will produce a better quality song, but of course at a MUCH higher file size.
It would be irrelevant however, when used as a ringtone, as the handset speaker, good as it is, cannot do it justice. So no point doing it. In other words, for a ringtone, then the quality of wma is more than good enough (as its actually a good quality format), but at a smaller file size by far than wav.
You CAN use wav if you like, but on the speaker of the XDA2 there is no quality benefit, but it WILL be bigger file size. Thus, the only real terms difference between wav and wma when used as a ringtone, is a larger file size if using wav.
To give an example... The ringtones I attached above as wma... They are around just 500K. The equivalent file as a wav would be around 5MB perhaps, depending on settings used.
I think that should explain the difference.
And I am not sure what you mean about an mp3 for a 30 second clip being no smaller than a 30 second wav file.
Forgive me mate, but I have to ask, what on earth settings are you using for wav, to get a 30 second clip the same file size as a 30 second mp3 or wma file?
PLEASE post an example here in mp3 30 seconds long, and wav 30 seconds long, in a decent enough sound quality format. I challenge you mate, as I suspect it will be at least 5 times larger in actual file size for the wav file...

Just briefly, to clarify the difference between mp3 and wav file formats...
A CD of music, in wav format, would amount to around 10 to 14 songs, and it would take up a full 650MB to 700MB of file space on the CD.
A CD of mp3's, sampled at what is generally accepted to be near 'CD Audio' quality of 128Kb, would allow for around 100 to 150 songs to fill the same 650MB CD - a hell of a difference.
Finally, a CD full of songs, but recorded in 96Kb wma format, which is that level deemed to be of equal quality to CD wav audio, would amount to around 200 full songs on a 650MB cd.
So that being the case (and its simple fact, known to nearly all), how can you say wav and wma/mp3 have a similar file size, when used at the same QUALITY?
No chance.
You CAN fiddle with wav settings to get a NEAR similar file size, but it will STILL be a still slightly larger file. The QUALITY however will be a LOT lower.
So why have a lot lower quality, at still larger file size with .wav, when you can have .wma, at better quality, and lower file size?
That last sentence, is the explanation in final terms, for WHY people use mp3, or wma, as opposed to wav.
Wav for VOICE only is a different matter entirely as you can use REALLY low bitrates for acceptable results, but for true music, no chance mate.

Which app do you guys use to convert WAV or MP3 to WMA ?
Thanks,
Rob.

Windows Media Encoder mate - it doubles up, as it allows me to convert video files too, ready for use on my XDA2.
There is LOADS more out there mate, but its free, and relatively easy enough, so I use that mate...
If it's not already on your system, the link is:

Assign Ringtone to group or specific number possible?

Hi
Can this be done....When in options I cannot seem to find the way to assign a specific ringtone to a specific number / contact and / or group.
Arjan

use ringtoneX from http://www.mtux.com. you can assign it to contacts and phone numbers
shareez

I agree Ringtone X is a lovely little application that let's you assign different tones by name, group, or number plus you can assign the default ringtone to specific numbers as well.
The current version can also play a variety of sound formats including midi, wma and wav.
Ed

you can also use a little very good freeware called PhonExt
http://phonext.oabsoftware.nl/
allow you to create and manage group ringtones and to assign personal ringtones to users.
can also be used for quick dialing with the today plugin.

Does it support the usual PPC 2003 ringtone formats, of wav, midi, AND wma though mate first?

I tried PhoneExt and it doesn't seem to work in WM2003

I also tried Phonext on my i-mate. The ringtone assignment doesn't seem to work on pocket pc os. The search contacts function works fine.
Any opinion on this?

i m using phonext on my XDA2 win2003 for a long time and i have no problem at all. i previously used it on my XDA 1 under windows 2002 and 2003 and i never had problems
i store my .wav in the /windows/ring directory and assign in my contact the ringtone i want to be play.
I did not try with .mid or wma i only use small .wav files
it works just fine.
just one thing : make a shortcut of the phonext.exe and drop it in the window startup so the the application run when you reboot

wav wav wav...
Everyone keeps referring to wavs, but it seems no one is prepared to answer the question...
Does this application allow the normal PPC2003/WM2003 assignment of wma and mid files.
You and many others might still be using large wav files.
But the rest of us with WM2003 elect to utilise the much smaller and better quality wma files.
So asking yet again...
Does this application support wma files.
'Cos if the answer is no, it's usless to us.
So, anyone want to answer this time please folks?

well i can now answer to you now, i ve made some of a testing yesterday.
phonext only deals with wav, no wma nor mid files.
sorry dude

hhhmm better quality wma files as ring tones ?
yes mp3 and wma can be made to sound almost as good as a cd
but as a ring tone it's being played by the speaker of the xda
which is pretty low quality small speaker
it's pretty overkill
heck i bet you could take a wav file and make it mono and 8bit and changed the sample rate to 11Khz and would still be ok for a ring tone

that s how i encode my wav files, sounds good and quality is more than acceptable for me.
usually i got less than 150 K per ringtone for a 20 sec ring tone

Hi Rudegar mate.
I'm originally an Orange SPV E200 user...
Had this since October last year.
Done more tests between wav, and wma, than i would care to go into.
Modaco Smartphone website covers this issue to death, with loads of users chipping in.
The completely unanimous agreement?
WMA is the better file format to use, for the balance between quality and file-size.
Proven. Not speculation. But as ever, each is free to decide for themselves. All I am saying is that in a debate that has ALREADY ran for ages in relation to another device, the consensus is this conclusion.
Let me point out, that if you use a low quality wav, you can use wma to make an equivalent 'low' quality tone, but at a smaller file size.
If you want high quality wav, you can use wma to encode in VBR 320K, and get a superb high quality tone, but STIll at a smaller file size than a very high quality wav file.
So its entirely up to you what quality you opt for - all I am saying is that once you settle on the quality level you like, using a wma file at a generally equivalent quality will result in a smaller file size.
Not fish-wife's tale mate, accepted fact, hence why compressed file formats such as mp3 and wma are used the world over - a decent enough quality for audio, and much smaller file sizes.
The wma files that I use... they are 96K quality, around 40 seconds long each (took me ages to create my catalogue, but I've been doing this for a long time remember). They are all around 500K file size.
If I were to utilise wav files instead, to do them at a quality that was acceptable on the phone/XDA2, they would weigh in at around 2MB.

Shadamehr
with my wma encoder i have one handle which is bitrate
with a wav editor i have
sample rate
mono / stereo
16bit vs. 8bit
and Cyberb0b (even though i havent heard that 150K ring tone of his) have a 20sec ring tone as wav
personaly when i store music on my xda2 using wma i do it in 64K/b sec which is not the best quality for listening to music but it's be all means way overkill for playing a ring tone using the nonheadset speaker of my xda2
suppose it can in some ways be compared to
everybody know that jpg is better then bmp
but if i were to draw a picture in pain using black on the white
saving my picture as 2bit bmp is WAY better an option then saving it
as jpg
with screenshots in windows gif as a rule is a better format then jpg
and with these 2 examples i'm speaking both quality and size

I use wma 64 as ringtones and i will NEVER use wav..
and i can tell the difference between 64wma and 32wma through xda ii speaker.. this speaker is not total crap.. it's the best ive ever heard in a pocket pc/phone.. even when watching movies and clips i cant use anything less than wma 64..
IMHO more than wma 64 is useless(when using the speaker)
and less than wma 64 is noticeable (when using the speaker)

i suppose what one use as ring tone also mean a great deal
i mean if somebody use a song or their own voice yelling to pick up the phone
compared to one who found some ring tone like an old type of phone they once had and use that
or a dog barking or .......

Shameless plug.
I've some ring tones encoded in WMA available from my website.
Cheerio
Howard

it might be better with WMA, but i do not listen to my rigntones all day long, i just need a cool sound to recognise who is calling me in the daily noisy diturbance.
Usually i even use 4 or 5 sec repeting sound making wav no bigger than 20 or 40 ko as the sample file included.
i m sure wma is better, but i might use that to listen to music, i do not care my ringtones have or not a CD quality
and as far as phonext is the only free soft i have found to assign ringtones to contacts i ll continue this way.
maybe the developper of the app will release a new one including wma, i hope so....
if some one got a better free soft for assigning ringtones to contact and creating groups, i will follow

Rudegar,
Send me ANY of your wav file ringtones.
I'll encode them into wma audio, and the quality will be comparably the same (certainly no pronounced noticeable deterioration), and they will be smaller file size.
And that being the case, then why would anyone use wav that doesn't have to?
Why do you think it was such a sought after feature of WM2003 - wma tones?
To have tones of comparable quality, but at lower filesize.
Yes, of course its not a lossless compression format (though little known fact, neither is wav!).
But it IS a format that can be reduced in file size considerably, with virtually no noticeable difference in quality.
Audiophiles can supposedly tell the difference at the HIGHER end of the quality scale (though I have to admit I can't), but it was always accepted that at the lower end, no real difference could be noticed.
So, if you can save a tone in a two formats, either of which SOUND much the same, but one is a lot smaller file size than the other, which would you use?

well i dont have any ring tones well non that i use anyhow
i use a tone called dog bark which came with my rom
maybe cyberbob have one
and i never claimed that wma was bad
just that wav files need not be that big in size if one had to make due with them one could limit their size and not suffer
much in the way of quality when it came to ringtones

Putting muisc on 8525

What program should i use to put music on my phone? and make the song small but sound good still.

oooh ooooh let me guess... windows media player?

Well i guess i sounded stupid by putting the question of what program to use to put the songs on to the phone. But what program should i use to convert the file into a smaller one without making the song quality crap?

Small MP4 files...
I use dbpoweramp to compress mp3's into mp4 files with an enhance aac plus encoder. I use tcpmp player to play them, but WMP will play them as well... there is just a noticeable pop every now and then in WMP.
http://home.case.edu/bes7/db_EnhAACPlus_710.zip - to the plugin for dBpoweramp
http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthread.php?t=7107&page=1&pp=15 - to the original thread about it.
This is the pluggin to use... I compress the mp3's down to 32kbit stereo and they sound amazing. A typical 4mb mp3 turns out to be around 900kb or so... you can store TONS more music... and there is very little quality loss.
Hope this is helpful...
Mark

Thank you.. thats what i was looking for

Well i downloaded the file and unziped it to my desktop. Now im confused as what to do with it. when i try to run the programs from inside the folder a black screen pops up then goes away. Im new to all of this stuff So any help would be great thanks

TCPMP 0.72 album cover viewing

I have searched in vain but I cannot find an answer to the following question about TCPMP. I have used it for years on several generations of PDAs, but I cannot find a way of showing the Album cover when playing wma files. Built-in Microsoft WMP does it, but TCPMP apparently cannot? I tried the commercial version of Core Player which does do it, but I found it too messy to use the program (e.g. odd large fonts on my VGA device, Loox N560, making playlists unviewable).
Has anyone found a way of making the album art display whilst playing a track, please?

TCPMP does always display a folder.jpg if (there is one) when playing music from the same folder.

Thanks for that.
I think it only works when the files are mp3 but not when the folder contains wma files. All my folders have a "folder.jpg" file in with the wma music tracks but they do not display. I wonder why they do with mp3s and not with wma... or am I doing something wrong? Each folder has multiple wma tracks, a
folder.jpg and an AlbumArtSmall.jpg and a playlist file ***.m3u. I can make TCPMP show the Album cover if I include the Folder.jpg in with the selected tracks in a Playlist, but it just sticks on displaying the picture and doesn't play the wma tracks!
Help!

If anyone is interested anymore? ... I have performed exhaustive tests and these are the results.
If I have a folder with mp3 files and a Folder.jpg the picture shows when playing any of the mp3 files in the same folder. If the folder contains only wma files and the Folder.jpg the picture does NOT display. So it looks like TCPMP is programmed to show the Folder.jpg only when playing mp3 files in the same folder and NOT other formats like wma.
I even tried putting a silent mp3 track in the playlist in front of the wma tracks. Whilst playing the silent track (about 3 seconds) the folder displays but as soon as the first wma file of real music starts, the album cover picture disappears. It is obviously hard coded into TCPMP! Shame. I ran audio tests awhile back and the quality of the wma files was the same as mp3 files, but at half the sampling rate and therefore creates files half the size. So I took the decision to encode all my collection of CDs in wma. I have all the album covers in with them. The only option is to re-encode all the wma files to mp3.... oh blimey that is a big job! But at least I now know what is happening?
Has anybody hacked TCPMP to solve this? Unfortunately I don't have the skills to do it..

i also use wma although its from microsoft. Just use S2p ! its much better for music and fingerfriendly, but has no playlists.

Thank you for this helpful suggestion. I have S2P now installed. It has a beautiful GUI! I had not discovered it. And I love the revolving windows and the album covers. And I am tempted to use it, BUT I have a 16Gb SDHC full of music in folders and the thousands of tracks just scroll up for ever.. finding stuff will be hard. The absence of user designed playlists is a bit of a shame. However, the arrows on the left are good and get me to the folders just fine. I have just discovered the tap on the album cover gives the playing position etc, Brilliant. Thank you so much. It is such a samll program too!
If only TCPMP had this interface (the commercial Coreplayer has an awful interface in my opinion)...... But thank you so much.
I would still love a way to solve the TCPMP version though.....

he he ! AC's Apps are the best ! try s2u2 and s2v. I think a playlists feature will come because developing continues. tcpmp is the best freeware videoplayer but i think core and tcpmp are not experts for music.
I forgot: you can also try HTC Audiomanager. i think newest version has Albumview (not sure) and Playlists (sure) ! search here

Thanks for the new pointer to HTC prog. I forgot to mention that I am using this all on the VGA Loox N560 not a smartphone. I kept wondering what the "No Service" at the top LH corner meant! Silly me! I tried running WiFi while it is on and a little WiFi icon appears too helpfully, but how on earth you can use it I have not - yet - a clue... but I will persist. I have been listening to lots of stuff and it sounds great. And I love the automatic screen backlight save (which I have reset to a longer time in the Registry).
The other AC stuff seems geared to mobile phones rather than a traditional PDA like mine. But I will try the HTC prog when I find it. Thanks again to bluemetalaxe.

fingerstoo - I also just downloaded TCPMP and found the album art was not displayhing for my WMA files, and stumbled across this thread.
I bought a 16GB MicroSDHC earlier this week and transferred ~9GB music (~4200 tracks) to it and have found that it brings my Tmobile Dash (Excalibur) to a painful crawl.
Switching between tracks (especially as you get towards the end of the library) is very slow, and it can take upwards of a minute or so to start a track.
I'm curious about why you're looking for a non-WMP solution to maintaining your library.
I'm wondering if you're not keen on sticking with WMP for the same reasons (thus validating my theory that this is a common problem based on the number of files in the library), or if you are just looking for additional features not found n WMP.
Would you mind sharing your experiences with WMP to let me know if you have found the same, or if it's just me?
Thanks in advance.

use mortplayer.. has every function youd ever need!

Yup, WMP has problems with large numbers of files. But the real reason why I got hooked on a replacement was because of the inability to play Divx video. I became obsessed with small size video files and making them play without freezes or pixel artefacts/glitches. TCPMP won hands down. Mind you it took huge amounts of experimentation with sampling rates, codecs etc to get consistent high quality results. The other factor was to make good use of a VGA size screen. The higher sampling rates and this together needed a good player and PC video conversion software. TCPMP remains the winner. Having used it extensively for video, all I want to do was continue to use TCPMP for audio as well. It seemed to have good control of playlists, plenty of tweakable audio controls (more than WMP) and support for a wider range of audio formats ogg for example. The onlt thing that frustrated me was not seeing the familiar album cover. I own the CDs so why shouldn't I see the cover as it plays (if I want). And I discovered, as you see from this thread that the covers appear as mp3 tracks play but not wma! Obviously coded in.
Having tried S2p, I will probably use that for audio and stick with TCPMP for video. I use an old copy I bought of CD-DA to rip the files from CD. I like to be incontrol of my libary mannually. It annoys me when WMP on the PC wants to take control of transferring and syncing my music. I want total control myself, thank you! Although I used to use the PC WMP to rip files , I have found again that the flexibilty and file conversion features of CD-DA are more helpful for me.
I worked (albeit a long time ago) 9 years for the BBC in video/sound hence my interest in all these things. Perhaps this explains my obsession with being in control?

Thank you for pointing me again to Mortplayer. However, I have tried various versions of this over the last few years. But undeterred, I tried the very latest version off Mort's site. Although I agree that it has bags of functionality and does indeed show the album cover, I just cannot stand that GUI.
Bluemetalaxe suggested S2P above. I am pleased with this because IMHO S2P looks so cool and is easy to use (even a shade of HTC and Apple GUIs in there too?). So for me, it's TCPMP for video and S2P for audio from now on.
I am a fan and user of Mortscript though. Mort seems better at writing clever and sophisticated "backroom" code rather than swish GUI design? I think he needs a graphic designer to hel him improve his GUI. I follow the Mortscript thread on this site every day, like many thousands of others.... brilliant.

Best Quality With Smallest Size Audio Format

I have about 17GB of music I would like to get on my NS (around 2600 songs, mp3 format, range from 160-320kps ). Now, their's only 13GB available to use on the NS, so I'd like to know if I can change the format to something else to keep a similar or same quality, so I can fit them all on my NS
I do realize that some formats will decrease quality (because I'm converting from mp3) but, i'd like to keep the min. bit rate to sound like 160 on mp3. If anyone has any suggestions/instructions on how I can do this succesfully that would be great

There is another thread in general about audio files check it out, has some really good info. To provide some info here u can change the file format from mp3 to ogg vorbis to decrease the file size but u will lose sound quality, not that much tho. I took mp3 files and converted them to ogg vorbis then compared the sound quality and I personally noticed a difference. What I have found out is if you have the original CD is to rip the file to FLAC, which is lossless then convert it to ogg. Another option to consider is to use a streaming program like AudioGalaxy or Subsonic, both are available for android. These allow you to keep your music on your computer but stream it to your phone anywhere in the world. I'm currently looking into this myself. Hope some of this helped.
