===============================
Here's another option if you are willing to
invest a blank CD. Create a Music CD
with the MP3 files and RIP it with Windows
Media Player 11 with .wma as the target
format.

RE: MP3 to WMA

If you have it, install the MP3 Audio Converter from Windows XP Plus. I
installed it on Vista Home Premium and it works fine.

=====================================
I'm not really into camcorders but as I understand
it...high quality video consumes approximately
13 GB per hour of footage.

Even though the following article is not current...
it may offer some useful info:

How to convert DV to WMV using Windows Media Encoder

Good luck...

Re: MP3 to WMA


Do you have a sample MP3 file that doesn't work here? I'd like to more
completely understand why this is failing for you. I'm assuming there's
some sort of unsupported ID3 in the file, but that's pure guesswork at this
point without a file to look at.
