Hi alexandra, as you see from the subject line, it is 170 beta2. that
is the latest version i have. what happens if i try to convert an ogg
file is this. it appears to do the conversion, and if i go to where
the converted file should be, it is there. it will tell me the size
of the converted file in bytes. if i then open it in foobar, it will
show me at the bottom of the xcreen come up one with 8, what rate the
conversion was done at, whether the file is in mono or stereo, and
the length of the file in hours and minutes. there is one problem,
although foobar says it has it loaded, it won't play it. i then
loaded the file in to soundforge7. it also acknowledged that it had
it loaded, would give me the details in rate and length of the file,
but wouldn't play it. my friend is still using 151, and he says it
will still convert ogg to mp3. i had this programme myself, but when
later versions came out, i moved to them, assuming that they would do
everything that 151 would do. at present i have versions 160 and 170
beta2 on this machine. 160 behaves the same as 170 with regard to ogg
files conversions. if you remember alexandra, i tried to reinstall
151 again, and you helped me with the ini file. i failed to do that,
as 151 can't find the directory where i have put the files to
convert. well, there it is, all of it. best wishes, brian.
