.asx Files

How can one convert these to either mp3 or wave or what ever you can use to convert to get mp3 or wave? This has probably been asked 1000 times, but I can't find anything on it. Thanks :teufel8:

I put this on the notepad, I tried .asf, wma, and everything in the alphabet, but nothing seems to work........Thanks

Re: .asx Files

Nor would it, as you can see the protocol in the address is mms:// - this refers to a multi media streamning server and you cannot download the audio file from there. All you can do is stream it. If it had been Http:// it would have been a different story.

Thus your option for capturing this audio file is to play the original asx file in your player and use dMC Auxiliary Input to record it to a wav (or maybe wma or mp3, but I prefer capturing to a wav and converting it later).

Please check the forum, there are lots and lots of threads explaining how to use dMC Auxiliary Input.
