    Question about soundconverter

    Hi, I've done a forum search both here and at ubuntuforums.org,

    and I seem to be having a problem with soundconverter, I am trying to convert my wma's to ogg or flac (I don't which one I like better yet so I was going to convert a file to both and see which one sounds better)

    The problem I seem to be having is once I have the file in soundconverter and click th convert tag the conversion process seems to hang, it creates a trackname.ogg file in my music folder but there seems to be no data in the created file.. I do have kubuntu restricted extras installed, could this be a drm issue since the majority of my music files were ripped from CD in Windows Vista (when I still used it)?

    Thanks and any and all help is very much appreciated... (plus I'm sorry if this has been asked before, I just couldn't find a thread on my specific problem)

      Ok, just a little more info... as I type this right now, I am successfully converting all of my downloaded MP3's to ogg...

      So it must be a DRM issue with the WMA's correct?

        OK... I think I am going to forget about converting and just re-rip my CD's and rip them to ogg or flac....


        It would probably be easier and take less time...

          Do you have w32codecs (or w64codecs, if a 64-bit system) installed?
