Hello again, I got this site that contained the 'lame' package. deb http://mail.linuxvar.it/~gianluca/athlon-xp testing main This is the output of the 'file' command which I guess indicates the type of audio file format. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- rec02.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, IMA ADPCM, mono 8000 Hz --------------------------------------------------------------------------- When I run lame to convert it into MP3 it gives this error and proceeds. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Warning: corrupt or unsupported WAVE format Assuming raw pcm input file --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The converted mp3 file that is created has a hiss. :-( Any ideas what I can do to get lame to recognize this audio file format so that it can convert the wave file to mp3? Thanks Regards -- Rishi
