Title: Converting Wav To Mp3
Post by: TheFly on December 19, 2004, 08:37:27 pm

I've recently decided to try recording a podcast while I drive to work.  I have a stock SL-5600.

I have used the default voice recorder, which records in WAV format.  The quality is decent enough for my purposes.

I'm running into a problem finding something to convert the WAVs to MP3 format however.  It doesn't have to be anything fancy at all.
As it stands, I have to pull the SD card from my Z, mount it on one of the WindowsXP boxes at work and use a converter there.  I've infested the machined with all kinda junkware trying to find a decent converter.  I'd really like to have the Zaurus do it for me.

I'm willing to try a different ROM if there's something out there that will either record straight to MP3 or convert the voice recorder WAVs to MP3 for me.

Any ideas?  I see lots of stuff to PLAY MP3 but that's not helping.
