Overview

This chapter describes tools for converting sound files in .wav or .wve format to the format used by EPOC32 sound files. Two tools are needed for this: wav2wve and wveconv. Conversion from .wav to EPOC32 format is a two-step process: first, the file should be converted from .wav format to .wve format (the EPOC16 sound file format), using wav2wve; then, the .wve file should be converted to EPOC32 sound file format using wveconv.


wav2wve.exe — Convert file from .wav to .wve

Section Contents


Purpose

This tools translates sound files from .wav to .wve format (the EPOC16 sound file format). To convert a .wav file to EPOC32 sound files format, use this tool followed by wveconv (described below).


Command line syntax


wav2wve [-Ooutput-file] source-file[.wav] [ options ]
options :
      -Rrepeat
|      -Ssilence
|      -B

Arguments

This tools translates sound files from .wve format (the EPOC16 sound file format) to EPOC32 sound file format. To convert a .wav file to EPOC32 sound files format, use wav2wve (described above) followed by this tool.

Note that EPOC32 sound files have no filename extension. (Like EPOC32 files in general, the filename may contain a dot followed by trailing letters, but this is part of the filename itself.)
