Re: Problem with MPG Files
Gary! MPG is short for MPEG which stands for Motion Picture Experts Group. It is a protocol for compressing Video and Audio. An MPG file has a video component, a audio component and information that defines what video goes with what audio. MPx is the audio component of a MPG file. In your case you have MP3. There are MP1 and MP2 and MP4 as well. When you load an MPG file into something like Sound Forge that is only designed to handle audio you get just the audio part of the MPG. I better stop.

Re: Problem with MPG Files
Hi Bruce. I'm sorry if my tone sounded severe in my last email. I really do appreciate all your suggestions. I just have to figure out which ones I might want to apply. Goldwave sounds like a great program, but I got Soundforge a few years ago for $99.00. At that time, it was a bargain, since it usually costs around $500. Is the Winamp plug-in, you've been talking about come with the program? Again, I apologize for the tone in my last post, but I went to the Nero website to download a trial version of that, but I couldn't find a place where I can do that. Probably compared to most of you, I'm probably a novice at this stuff. Like I said before, it's probably a matter of which solution I might want to try implementing. - Original Message - From: Bruce Toews [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: Problem with MPG Files
By using the demo of Gold Wave for your purposes, you're not showing any disloyalty to Sound Forge, if that's what's worrying you. You install the demo, convert your files, then you can delete the demo. It's really the fastest and most complete solution to your problem. And it's also the simplest.

Re: Problem with MPG Files
Yes. Essentially you go into preferences in Winamp, go to plugins, output plugins, and then choose the disk writer plugin. Somewhere there you'll be asked for a filename. I've never used this plugin as it jsut seems like too much of a bother. What you then do is run the MPG file, wait for it to complete, and you should have a wave file of what you've just listened to. This method requires saving in real-time.

Re: Problem with MPG Files
Hi Bruce. Well that's all right. Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it. I'll have to look at all the options, and decide where to go from there. - Original Message - From: Bruce Toews [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

I don't know anything about burning an MPG file to a DVD for the purposes of watching it on a home DVD player. All I know is how to extract the audio from the file and do it that way.

Essentially you go into preferences in Winamp, go to plugins, output plugins, and then choose the disk writer plugin. Somewhere there you'll be asked for a filename. I've never used this plugin as it jsut seems like too much of a bother. What you then do is run the MPG file, wait for it to complete, and you should have a wave file of what you've just listened to. This method requires saving in real-time.
