    WMA to WAV - getting an error

    When I try to run the converter from the command line to convert a WMA file to WAV, I get "Error: Unable to load encoder 'Wave'. [dBCoreConverter::dBCoreConverter]" Is there a codec that I need to install to do this? If so, what one? My command line is:

    coreconverter -infile="094634037457_01_005_wm9lossless_full.wma" -outfile="testWav.wav" -convert_to="Wave" =priority="high" -silent -errorfile="errors.txt"

    Wave should be fine it is there by default, as a test change Wave to FLAC, does that work?

    How strange - same thing, unable to load encoder 'FLAC'. And mp3 too - FLAC to MP3 was working before I installed the WMA codec - and now nothing seems to be working. Please help! (This is urgent, I have routines running that have apparently been disabled since yesterday - Ack!!)

    Re: WMA to WAV - getting an error

    To elaborate, when I run dbConfig, I see no encoders listed at all. On one of my other machines this looks normal, includes FLAC, WAVE, etc. I don't know hoe I managed to lose them on the machine in question, but what's the best wat to correct the situation?

    Thanks for your help on this!
