Converting mpg files

[greg psborne]

I've used db poweramp for a couple of years to convert from Wav to Flac or mp3 but now want to convert some .mpg files to mp3 and I get the following error message:

Error valid mp3 frame not found. [clsmpeg123::Init]. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

all the best

Re: Converting mpg files

mpg are typically movie files, they might not contain audio dBpoweramp can recognize.

Thanks for the quick reply. You are of course absolutely right - its a video format and I don't need to convert the file but instead extract the mp3 audio material from it - in other words it's a task dbpower amp is not designed to do. I must be going bonkers - its good to have someone help whose got more than half a brain cell!!
