Title: "Failed to convert" message on wma file on 9.316
Post by: Bob in LA on January 24, 2004, 12:29:44 am

Hello everyone,

When I used the convert file function and selected a 128 wma file that I downloaded from musicmatch the system gave me a "failed to convert" message.  It seemed to stop at the decoding file step.  I have media player 9.0 on my system along with media center 9.316.

Thanks for your help.

Was that a purchased track?
MC cannot convert DRM encoded tracks.

Oh yeah, I forgot.  As I understand it the only way around this is to copy it to a CD and then encode it back into MC, right?
