Mp3 and mp4 ?

I have sony walkman MP3's for my kids. I cannot get the songs downloaded off itunes to play or even register as downloaded on the devices. They are there because when I go into the files, they are reading as being on the device. They just do not show up on the "play" screen and do not play. My son said something about converting from mp4 to mp3 but DUH like I understand that. HELP, I cannot live with a teenage daughter and not have this machine working. The songs from limewire work but they are mp3 style and I really do not want to go back to limewire. How to convert? Thanks

There are a lot of free audio file converters out there, just google "convert mp4 to mp3" and you'll see a lot of options.
But I'm wondering if you really want to go through all of your audio files and convert them one by one. This can be quite tedious and is something you'll have to do with every file you download from iTunes.
You might want to try iTunes Agent instead:

I haven't used it myself, but it looks like it should work for you and would be a lot less hassle (if it works) in the long run.

IOS8 fails to stream password protected website mp3 and mp4 files

EDucational content in a password protected website folder (mp3 and mp4 lecture presentations) fail to stream from a simple directory list website with iOS 8 yet continue to work fine on an iPhone 4 with iOS 7. Apple says "expected behavior" with all browsers on iOS 8. Before i direct new students to other platforms so they can access course material, any fixes?

i drafted the solution here,
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Us … ows_shares
why is it i seem to get no comments on most of my posts, do i just do wierd stuff, or have i offended someone? :-|
If your not sure if i do wierd stuff, read the link above, lol.

How can I use an external player for MP3 and MP4 fomats without disabling native HTML5 playback support for mpeg formats that are embedded in webpages?

The Application options were poorly implemented, resulting in multiple instances of handlers for some formats in a long and confusing list. Now Mozilla seems to have solved that problem by preventing users from choosing how various media formats are to be handled -- the cure is worse than the disease! I am getting damned tired of researches into how this or that poor new decision in Firefox's development can be overruled, circumvented, or lived with. How can I choose how an .mp3 file is to be played, and what is going on at Mozilla that I have to ask?

Right-click the link and choose Save Link As to download the file. Afterwards, click the Downloads button on the navigation toolbar and left-click the downloaded file. This will open it with the associated application.
* [[Find and manage downloaded files]]
Setting ''media.windows-media-foundation.play-stand-alone'' to '''false''' in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config about:config] is the only way to prevent files like MP4 and MP3 being played inside the browser when left-clicking the links, until the preferences for handling such files are properly fixed at some point in the future. That will happen whenever a developer finds the time to write a patch.

Final Cut Pro Audio Levels Low when exporting to mp3 and mp4

Hi everyone! When I export audio from Final Cut as an mp3, my levels are very low. When I export footage as an mp4, the audio is low as well. But before exporting, my levels are right at or below 0. So they are where they should be. So for example, when I open the audio in Adobe Audion or Logic, they could almost be doubled before peaking within those programs. Could this be a compression issue? And input would be helpful. Thanks!

Are you working 0n 10.0.9? If not, update FCPX and see whether that solves the problem.

I can no longer download MP3 or MP4 why?

I have been downloading MP3 and MP4 for manyn months but can no longer do so. Those I have managed are downloaded to your site and I can not get them out.

Firefox doesn't have a site where you can download anything to let alone music or video files.
Could you give me the URL to this mysterious site please?

Yeah, I remember someone posted that solution a long time
ago. It seems if you load a file with the same name the cache
doesn't
know any better and adjusts the download size to the smaller
one. Maybe it's a good way to do it! Could it be a way to remove an
mp3 from someone's cache after it plays? hmmmm Will have to
do more testing.

Using Compressor 4, How do you create a droplet to transcode from final cut files to mp4, mp3 and m4v formatting?

Using Compressor 4, How do you create a droplet to transcode from final cut files to mp4, mp3 and m4v formatting?

Take a look at this section; it's pretty clear.
Compressor offers settings for each of the output formats you want. (For example, the m4v sttings for Apple Devices.)
Good luck.

MP3 and restricted codec support

hi,
finally I have my system set and running. I did go for the KDE4 which I like very much and followed all the steps as stated in the Beginner'S Guide.
However, I don't have MP3 neither other multimedia propietary format access like MP4, AAC, MOV, WMA, WMV or RMVB - I carry my multimedia collection of songs, videos and movies from when I was on WinXP (yikes!)- despite I installed Xine and other utilities as desccribed in the Beginner's Guide.
I do can watch some AVI files but can't access sound stream so they're muted. How do I add full multimedia support to my fresh shiny Arch? I did try to search the forums but there's to seem a problem because I keep receiving desconnections errors.

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=93862
Re: MP3 and restricted codec support
why did you opened a new thread instead of discussion in the previous one?
oops, I did it again, sorry! (yeah, I know you prefer Brtiney saying that )
I just did the same of my very first post: promise to don't screw things again and follow the rules.
@Bralkein: thanks for your tips and useful research, I will stick with xine until I backup my root, then maybe I try gstreamer.
@.:B:.: I have panic of installing things that can break my system, before installing Arch few days ago I came from an entire life in *buntuland, so you'll see : D

WMP will play some mp3 and mkv files to my Sony TV but not others

Hi,
Windows Media Player will play some mp3 and mkv files to my Sony Bravia TV (KDL70W850B) but not others. I get the error: “Failed to retrieve media information”. Sometimes if I make a copy of the files that don’t play, I am able to play the copied files.
I normally right click on files and select ‘Play to’ and then pick my TV from the list. The following is an example of some files (as displayed in Windows Explorer) and which do and don’t play:

I have stopped and restarted the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service and the UPnP Device Host Service; I also linked a Windows Live ID but this did not help. All devices have access to my PC and my TV has the latest software.
I have Windows 7 and WMP 12 and according to my TV specs, the DLNA supported formats are: MPEG1/ MPEG2PS/ MPEG2TS/ AVCHD/ MP4Part10/ MP4Part2/ AVI(XVID)/ AVI(MotionJpeg)/ MOV/ WMV/ MKV/ WEBM/ 3GPP/ MP3/ WMA/ LPCM/ JPEG/ MPO
I would appreciate any help you can offer.
Thank you

It seems to be an issue with Sony Bravia TV. According to the following article:
Supported File Formats for DLNA® and USB Compatible Sony® TVs
Under -Not all files are guaranteed to play.
Sometimes HandBrake
does help. I shall suggest you to contact Sony Bravia TV support.

How do i convert mp3 to mp4

My phone can only play mp4 not mp3, most of my music is mp3... How do i convert mp3 to mp4?

Google - MP3 to MP4 converter, and then just download a suitable program. Then go about converting all the files you wish to use.

Is there a fast way to convert mp3 to mp4?

Got a large library of audiobooks in itunes that are in mp3 format. I want to convert them to mp4. Join Together by Doug Adams does a great job of this but is sloooow (appears that Quicktime is running in single step mode.) Is there a faster way to make the conversion? What are the best sample rates and data rate for a fast conversion?
Thanks for any suggestions.

You still haven't talked about the reason for converting, other than easier to use. I can read between the lines and guess that you are copying the files to some special device that doesn't like MP3,but no idea what it is or why MP3 doesn't work with it. Also, are you settled on using AAC format? I think it is a more advanced format intended to replace MP3 (Haha... sorry, just thinking about how long these PC guys took to give up on Windows XP-- they will fight much harder before giving up MP3 and AVI),
Try Max for conversions. It has a batch feature (drag a dozen files to the window and click the Convert icon). Here is the comparison I got:
Using iTunes to convert a 3:02 length song, 192 kbps, 4.2MB MP3 to AAC 128 kbps, 2.8 MB, the conversion time is 59 seconds.
Using Max (free) to convert the same MP3 to the same setting of AAC 128 kbps, 2.9 MB, the conversion time is 37 seconds.

8330 limited to .3gp and .mp4 for video

It seems to be a well kept secret that the BlackBerry Curve 8330 only supports video formats .3gp and .mp4 Simple Profile (SP). There have been many forum queries on this subject. In many cases the person asking has the 8330 and wants to work with .avi files. The responders often assume .avi will work (since it does with all other Curves) and ends up pointing them down a dead end street. I also notice that most of the forum queries never finish with a resolution.
This limitation puts a real damper on my ability to capture video with the 8330 Curve Video Camera and send it to friends and family. Many of whom are novices at computers. Requiring them to figure out how to watch a .3gp file is just wrong. .3gp is the only format in which the Curve Video Camera captures, so when you email it, that is what they get.
Also, many of the recommended programs such as BlackBerry Video Converter do not work since the output produces .avi files. So far, I have struck out completely putting any format of video on the 8330 with BlackBerry Desktop Manager and actually getting it to work.
I know VLC and Quicktime will play captured 8330 videos (.3gp format). But how many novice computer users have VLC or Quicktime? And why should they be required to obtain them when Windows comes with Windows Media Player?
Can someone explain why the 8330 only supports .3gp and mp4 (limited to mpeg-4 SP (Simple Profile)) when the other Curves (8300, 8310, 8320, 8350i) all support .mp4, m4a, .mov, .3gp, .avi, and .wmv?

Hi niteshkumar482,
Welcome to the Nokia forums!
It plays wmv audio, and mp4 format is just a container. Different mp4 videos may have differing audio and video stream configurations, some may play, some may not.
As for the MP3, did you perform a hard reset on your device?

Old QT7 allowed conversion (export) from mp3 to mp4

I have 10.8.2 and I saved a copy of QT7 (7.6.6) so I could do conversions such as mp3 tp mp4.
A friend has a system configured like mine. He does NOT have a copy of OT7. He has QT 10.2. We tried to download from Apple the correct app. It won't let us instill a copy on his macine. HELP! Thanks, -bill

A friend has a system configured like mine. He does NOT have a copy of OT7. He has QT 10.2. We tried to download from Apple the correct app. It won't let us instill a copy on his macine.
What version of QT 7 did he download? Only the special v7.6.6 specificially modified for installation and use on latest Mac OS X v10.6, v10.7, and v10.8 systems can be installed. See instruction and link found HERE.
