isabel95 Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 I'm puzzled.If I record a music track from an audio cd and convert it to mp3 using CDex, the mp3 file is much smaller, yet last night I made a short recording with my digital camera of cicadas and when I converted the wav file to mp3 the resulting file was about 100kb larger than the original wav file.Can anyone explain why?Isabel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPD Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Bonjour Isabel, I used 4 years ago a tool which made Wave file with compression, and I succeeded to open these files with other tools which where unable to read other format as Wav. I haven't to day this tool because it doesn't do better than ogg or mp3 and is not really a standard file. I just keep a wav file that I used in one of my shows. It is 2908 Kb for 7' 05" length (compression rate = 12/1).Probably your camera use such a fileNB I you want I can send you the wave file.
