    I'm having a prolem with converting .wav to .mp3

    I'm using DBpower AMP to convert a wave file to MP3, but everytime I try to do it it comes up with this error

      See:

      The wave format can be uncompressed or compressed, each compression type (there are 65,000 possiblilites) requires a ACM codec (some are installed by default such as ADPCM). Some audio formats (such as Ogg Wave, or AC3 wave) requires that a specific ACM codec be installed, which ever program created such wave file might have a

        i AM USING A panasonic digital camera to record an audio of my own voice for a project I am doing, when I take the files off the camera onto the PC, they are in .wav form, but I need to get them onto CD, so I need them to be MP3

        Does anyone know how I can do this, that link didn't really give me the answer :unno

            If you need to get them to CD, why do they need to be mp3?

              If you can play the file on your own pc, you can either convert it or re-record it to a standard formats (e.g. pcm wav or mp3) using dMC Auxiliary Input. If you don't have a player for it, not much you can do until you get one.
