Guest lycrawearer Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 Can anybody give an indication of how many MP3's one could expect to store on various sizes of SD Cards, say for example a 64mb & also a 128mb ? Thinking of buying some more memory soon, and just wondering how much to get (also remembering that more is usually better). Thanks lycrawearer
Guest Anonymous Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 If you convert to WMA (You can easily do this using Windows Media Player) you can choose 32 bits/second (They call it "CD Quality"). I thought this would sound awful, but it doesn't... maybe on a nice Bose hi-fi setup it would, but not on your headphones. Travelling on the tube, it would be hard to tell if it sounds good or bad anyway since you'll get screeching in the background no matter what. It sounds just fine, and songs weigh in between 800k and 1.2 MB... so you get approximately 1 song per MB.
Guest Tim Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 How it is possible to copy the .wma files to the SPV? I have tried copying them in Explorer but the SPV says they are not licensed. In Windows Media Player on the PC I cannot get the Copy to Portable Devices to work, as it always says that there is no space and 'The drive cannot locate a specified area or track on the disk' ?
Guest Mark Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 Just drag the file from your pc into the storage card folder, works great! :D
Guest Tim Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 How is it that I just get a message saying 'The licence for this file cannot be found' when I do that. I'm obviously doing something wrong in Media Player, but I'm just dragging the .wma files ? :D
Guest Third_of_Five Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 If you convert to WMA (You can easily do this using Windows Media Player) How does one convert in Media Player? I had a look but could not see how to do it. I am running WMP 9
Guest Cent Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 You guys love to confuse each other ... some CD's are copy protected and some are not. Hence some of you have licence issues and some don't.
Guest Mark Posted November 25, 2002 Report Posted November 25, 2002 I converted mp3 files using Power MP3 WMA Converter which is free from Download.com Convert your cd to mp3 using something like audio catalyst then convert the file to WMA. You shouldn't have any copyright problems then. 48k is about the lowest acceptable quality WMA.
Guest Rob.P Posted November 27, 2002 Report Posted November 27, 2002 You can switch the license function off in Media Player.
Guest ptwilliams Posted November 28, 2002 Report Posted November 28, 2002 So I've got my MP3 loaded now into WMP9... how do I save it to this new WMA format to pop onto the SD Card on the SPV ? Help ! Pete
