0 Jotun Posted December 11, 2001 Share Posted December 11, 2001 it's easy to make mp3's with mediaplayer (at least from cd's)...do like this, open notepad, copy and paste this text into it: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMediaPlayerSettings] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMediaPlayerSettingsMp3Encoding] "LowRate"=dword:0000fa00 "MediumRate"=dword:0001f400 "MediumHighRate"=dword:0002ee00 "HighRate"=dword:0003e800 and save it as a .reg file, not .txt .Then you just install the key into the registry. And the next time you start Mediplayer you can choose if you want to rip songs to wma or mp3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Spyder Veteran Posted December 11, 2001 Veteran Share Posted December 11, 2001 AFAIK that registry hack won't work with RTM WinXP because they removed the MP3 encoder...which is why you have to buy it. why would you want to anyway? mp3 is inferior to wma .. you get the same sound quality in a smaller filesize with windows media.

0 neowin_hipster Posted December 12, 2001 Share Posted December 12, 2001 use a freeware batch converter. There's many out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 icie Posted December 17, 2001 Share Posted December 17, 2001 does the mediaplayer plus pack have a mp3 encoder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Hawkeye Posted December 17, 2001 Share Posted December 17, 2001 Actually, it does not have an MP3 encoder. It does, however, have the lite version of the WMA -> MP3 converter that will give you a sample of what you can get if you have Microsoft Plus! for Windows XP.
