yea I was hoping I wouldnt have to convert them all back to mp3.... I ripped them into wma to save on space on my old phone to begine with... even made sure there was no DRM protection on the files so that they would play on most anything... but looking around it seems there isnt any real support for WMA files on android.... some phone will play them(looks like most of them have NEON support in the chips though) but most android phones dont do WMA


thanks for the link that looks like some decent freeware apps to convert files though!!!!!!

it is super nice. EQ, with preamp, Cover Art, all kinds of stuff. Plus the major bonus of not having to hastle with converting all your WMA into MP3 and so on. Just put the music on your SD and go. WAY nicer then the stock music app

Default only some wma files play on my defy

I just paid for upgrade to power amp and still some wma files do not play on my defy. using 2.2.1 and have always been able to play only some of my wma files, even with stock music player. I even plugged the phone into a pc that does not have these music files on it, and was able to navigate to them on the sd card and play fine from the pc, so can't be corrupt filers right? have tried many diff't android market players but same results on all. any ideas? thanks.

Its a rights issue i would imagine. Never had a problem. Try writing the application developer.
