Have you installed the decoding codec for mp4 from Codec Central?
And what are the inpout file specs (bits, bitrate, freq, etc) and the output file specs (type, bits, freq, etc)?

Can you play the files that Hymn outputs?

Re: Problem Converting Mp4 to Mp3

Yea i have the decoder installed.

It comes in as an Itune File from Itunes so im not sure of the bitrate,etc.. but when i convert it through Hymn (I just drag it into Hymn shortcut, I guess thats how u do it)

Extension .M4a
Freq. 44100
Bitrate 128
Codec AAC

Then I get the convert to tag when i left click i try to convert to Mp3 and it gives me a windows error: Im running XP Home Sp2

AppName: musicconverter.exe AppVer: 6.0.0.2 ModName: mp4.dll
ModVer: 4.1.4.2 Offset: 000017c7

is the error i get

The funny thing is I did another song last week that came from Itunes unprotected and coverted it without a problem.

Ekk forgot to add it's not letting me play the Hymn file after its converted, gives me some not authorized message in Itunes.

Re: Problem Converting Mp4 to Mp3

Can you play the m4p protected file in Itunes?

Apparently Hymn isn't able to remove the copy protection then. It seems that Apple changed the version or some other aspect of the copy protection to prevent Hymn from working. You can always try dMC Auxilary Input to record the song to wav as you have Itunes play the song.

Re: Problem Converting Mp4 to Mp3

Found a better way. I tried the plugin, but it made the song sound bad after being recorded. So i let Itunes burn a disc, which converted the files to CDA's then i opened that with another program, Creative Media Source (GF has a Zen Mirco whole reason im doing this for her) then i was able to convert he CDA's to Mp3's on the disc and BAm it was done then i copied them to the Zen.

Thanks for the speedy responces fatest ones ive gotten on any board besides a flame lol

BTW: Great Job on the Audio Player :smile2:

LOL, if you did manage to burn an audio cd from iTunes, then dMC Audio CD Input would have ripped it and converted to anything else :D
