mp3 to wav

In XP i use Switch from NCH to convert music files. From mp3 to wav with
encoder settings in Mpeg Layer-3 with 56 kb/24000Hz stereo and 6kb/sec to
have a small file to be included in powerpoint. I installed the same exe
file on my Vista home premium laptop and I can't find the Mpeg Layer-3
anymore. What can I do? Someone who can help me?
Thanks a lot.

Re: mp3 to wav


I believe you would want to acquire an MP3 encoder - I believe that's
generally a for-pay codec, though. =\

Re: mp3 to wav

I do believe you Zach, but for XP there was no problem, the codec was
available without extra payment. I heard that there were some problems with
soms licence in Vista but don't know if that's the reason.
Those setting are in XP also available in the audio recorder that is
includes in accessories (bureau accessoires), but again in Vista they fail.
I'm still hoping someone had a solution for this problem, preferrably for
Switch. I do need 2 other programmes now for what Switch can combine. So ....

Re: mp3 to wav

Have a look at Cdex available Features | CDex that should cover your needs alternatively do a search for Audacity which is a complete audio editing package. Both are open source so are available for free
