    Mobile phone Sound file support

    Hello,

    since owning a new mobile phone, I searched for tools to create the sound files, my mobile phone supports, like AMR, IMA/DIV ADPCM, or iMelody.

    What's about converter drivers to create such "sounds" with the dMC?

    The easiest format would be IMA/DIV ADPCM - RIFF WAVE, Mono, 4bit, 8/16kHz, block align 256 (WAVE_FORMAT_DVI_ADPCM).

    But I don't know anything about AMR and iMelody!

    Thanks for any suggestions, thoughts, ...!

    Best regards,

    I though IMA ADPCM was already installed in windows - click 'compression' on the wave compression page.

      Yes, you are right!

      If I want to convert a PCM Wave file (41kHz, 16bit, stereo) into a mobile compatible IMA ADPCM Wave file (8/16kHz, 4bit, mono), than I have to:
      • open the Sound Recorder from Windows
      • open the file to be converted (file/open)
      • press in the dialog invoked by the menu command file/properties the "convert now" button
      • choose the conversion format (here IMA ADPCM)
      • save the file using a new file name (file/save as)
      • exit the Sound Recorder


      That is absolutely to complicated and can be changed to be a lot of easier!

      Why not letting dMC use the system internal IMA ADPCM codec or all system internal codecs to provide different WAVE conversions?

      I don't want you to reinvent the wheel, but to reuse the exiting wheel to let the real world spin a little bit easier and quicker! :D

        What Spoon means is that you indeed have an option to convert to IMA ADPCM from dMC when you select WAVE, click Compressed and select IMA ADPCM from the drop down list.

          Ok - thanks for you clarifying this!

          So, than there is still the question about supporting the AMR format (narrow/wide band).

          I don't have knowledge about the technical background or the licence this format is distributed with.

          Best regards,

            Ah, for that part you'll have to get information from the phone manufacturers (good luck, I've not had any luck with Sony Ericcsson on details of requirements and how to get anyhting onto my cell phone). There may be some support forums for that too.
