For those having problems with MP3 files of the wrong bitrates for their GP32, can I point them in the direction of DBPoweramp?

DB Poweramp

This neat little F R E E program has a ripper like audiograb using the free version of CDDB for track names, but it also scores highly in one important area:

It has shell integration: Say you have a 192Kb MP3 and you want to cut it down to 128 to save space on your SMC, you can right click it and convert it to the lower rate!!! Saves a bunch of time.

Also, if like me you are always recording stuff off of DAB radio, you will find it is a pain to trim as an mp3 without the long process of converting first to .wav, using soundforge etc.

I use MP3 Direct Cut which again is free and opens mp3 files instantly.

Hope this helps someone out ;)
 
Sounds great. SO you can lower the bitrate to make the file smaller? Like divx?
 
Precisely. It's really useful for portable players with minimum space! There are some very good FREE tools out there, if you are prepared to look beyond hacks and crakz etc!!

I use www.nonags.com to find mine ;)

Ade.
