Making WMA's?

[RwGast]

Ok i use to make my wmas using winamp 2.6. The problem is i just upgraded to Winamp beta 3 becuase it kicks more ass but it doesnt have a wma out plugin anymore. I also HAVE to encode to wma becuase for some odd reason some mp3's usually higher than 128k just stop playing half way through. So i guess maybe someone could tell me how to fix that problem or tell me what free program i can use to make wmas.

sure, use the windows media encoder from microsoft - its the same tool you use to make wmvs. get it from the media player section of microsofts website - i think in the 1st dvd2ppc tutorial there is also a link...

You may not like it, but Windows Media player will push out WMA.

ironic, isn't it.

The microsoft powertoys for media player windows xp and the microsoft plus! pack for windows xp come with an mp3 to wma conerter, limited and full version respectably

I also suffer the problem with mp3s encoded at higher than 128K stopping half-way through or skipping to the next track.

Is it intentional on Microsoft's part? Conspiracy theories wanted. 8O
