[The 8]

this looks very cool... thanks! i cant wait to try it out when i get home!
I have a 5500.... is it safe to use without damaging the speakers??

[djfreake]

ok i checked out this said converter and quite frankly i find no use for it other than to send ringers to my phone...no opportunity to save the files to your pc...will that be a up and coming feature? and is it really fair to advertise another forum in another? thats sorta like poopin in your own bed if ya ask me...

[The 8]

thats sorta like poopin in your own bed if ya ask me...

lol, how is it like pooping in your own bed?

[djfreake]

comes down to the old saying dont poop where you sleep...

bite the hand that feeds you???
piss in the wind?
Kissing your sister...sure she's a piece of tail but deep down you know its wrong...



things that will only come back to haunt you...

it seems there is a way to download the qcp ..and listen to it as a wav

[voltaboy]

it wont work for me, it keeps saying to make sure that the filename doesnt have any symbols in it. how is that possible? everything would be c:\something.mp3

so what do i do?

[mike@d-d-n.com]

not sure why you got the error, we are debugging, as for the 5500 yes it works fine, i personally have one. and we are not "pooping" in out own bed.

[djfreake]

Well its a good thing that it allows you to preview the file in wav format...but thats as far as you get with it...What if I wanted to save the file for later use? I make alot of ringers myself for alot of people and I dont see your utility as being useful for the not so novice...win the fans win your freedom. I FOR ONE AM NOT A FAN. And the way I see it, you are pooping where you are sleeping. I wonder if I should walk into the Axa Advisors office hand out my American Express Financial Advisors business card and tell all their clients that I can do the same job for more money...

Show of hands...who's phone supports wav format????

[mike@d-d-n.com]

sorry i didnt know you where hard of reading... do you see the DOWNLOAD button? that saves it to your desktop. why would you make a ringer, and NOT send it to your phone? kinda like going to the bath room with out pulling down your pants. and ill post on what ever forum i want. being a advertiser on SU i deserve that privilage.

[voltaboy]

im also trying to register for the site, but its not sending the color to my phone

[djfreake]

Actually no there was no Download anywhere on the page...just preview that opens up a new browser window...i specifically looked for one and there wasnt...if there is one now its only because you reallized the error in your ways and scurried off to put it there...please dont ever question my integrity or intelligence...

[mike@d-d-n.com]

define intelligence...... having a cartoon character that is "special" as a avatar

and its been there from the start. for debugging purposes.

[DcDave63]

I tried it, and it wouldnt work for the Audiovox 8920. Got the "906 Invalid Descriptor Malformed JAR or content size in descriptor" error.

However, I did open the GCD on my pc, extracted the file location, sms'd it to my cell, and it went there and played it live. So the file was created and played just fine. Just not downloaded.

we double checked and you should have no problems with that phone. save it to your desktop and try using the focus tool.

new update, you now can convert to AAC ringers for the people with the MM phones :)

[Perfectance]

I love you. :D

[michelle]

weeee! time to test it out!

edit: i sent an AAC to the phone but i never received the notification... :confused: is the a700 compatible w/your site? the phone doesn't show up in the compatibility list.

[michelle]

Oh wow it works! and the ringer sounds fantastic! you rock! :D But man, that notification took forever! I really appreciate the way your site lets us adjust the volume and make the ringer sound louder/softer. Now my only problem is compressing the file. My ringer is only about 10 seconds and it's over 346k (but it sounds great)! How can I make a smaller file? Is it because the mp3 is high quality to begin with (160kbps)?

Ah the possibilities now!...

[mike@d-d-n.com]

seems to be a bug with the program, when ever a mp3 had corupt headers, it fails to set the bitrate. trying to figure it out but, glad to hear you got the message. sprint text messaging is screwy today / yesterady

[michelle]

mike, so how do you suggest to make the filesize smaller? with the size i'm going at, the ringers will eat up all the memory :p

[Perfectance]

mike, so how do you suggest to make the filesize smaller? with the size i'm going at, the ringers will eat up all the memory :p

There are converters out there that will shrink the file size of MP3's for you. Just know that it'll lower the quality of the ringer.

Right now I have a strange way of putting the ringers on my phone. I use Quicktime to trim the MP3, and Poweramp to reduce the file size. After that I run it through the d-d-n.com converter. I know there has to be a better way because my file sizes are still at 200kb. I downloaded some other ACC ringers from other charitable people, and the size is small with good quality. Check the A700 tips and tricks thread (http://www.sprintusers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=48626) for more info on everything I just mentioned.

[michelle]

thank you for the info. will check it out. but thanks mike for providing this great service. i love aac ringers! especially when i can make my own, it makes it even better :)

[mike@d-d-n.com]

we are trying to fix the compression problem, should be done by this evening, EST

[Deval]

Here is the thing...with AAC, if you reduce the bitrate, you will get a smaller file size...I will talk to Mike about doing that

[currupt247]

im not sure if that was enough arrows for my good friend dj. *psst* hes a little hard of seeing :p

o dj can i have your business mastercard i have a motorcycle to purchase and that seems like just the ticket to get it to me faster and freeer..... free...er... hmm is that a word? oh well now it is sluts. :cool:

[Deval]

***...................

[mike@d-d-n.com]

2:30am, fixed the bitrate function, ringtones are now compressing the correct way

[Vanity3]

Thanks for the website, but I had a problem. I converted one of my MP3s on your site. Then I saved it to my computer and used "Focus" to send it to my phone. I got the text message on my phone, downloaded the file and low and behold, NO sound! The file was there, but when I hit play...nothing! What did I do wrong?

[Deval]

strange...just happened to me too...need to talk to mike now

[Slick5300]

how long does it normally take to get the notification? it seems to be taking while... i hope it works, though. This sounds sweet!

[Jer1]

it shouldnt take more then a few minutes

are you using focus or the send to phone button?
if you are using focus...dont its broken

[Jer1]

What file format did you choose?
did the preview work?

etc etc

[Deval]

nope...the preview didnt work, and the qcp file was invalid

[Slick5300]

hmmm didnt work for me. Even when i saved it to my PC first, then sent it to the phone, it wouldnt play.

[Deval]

how big was the MP3 file itself?

[gof]

I tried it, and it wouldnt work for the Audiovox 8920. Got the "906 Invalid Descriptor Malformed JAR or content size in descriptor" error.

Just tried this on my 8920. I received a 906 error as well.

[ca2ga]

i make ringers all the time for my phone in mp3 format. i just chop up an mp3 on my computer and send it to my phone using xingtone. www.xingtone.com what is the difference between mp3 and qcp???

[michelle]

i tried sending an aac ringer today but the file size is still huge...257kb

[Jer1]

What AAC bitrate did you pick?

[michelle]

it's 96kbps.

[Slick5300]

i got the invalid descriptor error when i send it from the website. when i send it through focus, or something similar, it downloads but it wont play. also once i have it saved to my computer, it wont play in Pure Voice, either.

[michelle]

i guess i'll be grateful it's working for me. you're trying to download an aac or qcp? aac is working fine for me on my a700.

[Noodle]

not sure if anyone cares but I haven't tried the converter but when I make my own ringers they are a min of 192 mp3's to start but even after the wav then qcp conversion they still end up around 9k... how are you guys ending up with 200+k files.

that and I was about to ask why you're talking about acc Michelle but then again I forgot your a mac fan. :P

Along the same lines, I figured out that the DDN download process is much faster if I chop up the MP3 to the exact size that I want it then use DDN to convert it and send it to my phone. I use the MP3Trim software, plus it is free too!

by choppijg it up ifirst you are not sending as much data to D-D-N
so yes it would be faster

thats a really good idea!!! and where did you get MP3Trim from? I need something like that

[sharkdamark]

That tool works well. You are the greatest. Thank you for being my everything.

ps you can convert WAV files to qcp also.

[Deval]

lol...you're very welcome :)

[mike@d-d-n.com]

does anyone have a att/tmobile/cingular phone that supports HiFi ringtones? if so pm me

[Slick5300]

It finally worked, but the ringer came out really quiet on the phone. This was with the volume all the way up on both the phone and the converter. Any ideas how to make it louder?

[Deval]

I know that on some phones...QCP files sound low as compared to normal ringers...on my 5500 its annoyingly low :(

[Vanity3]

this thing is throwed....

[Deval]

whos in the what now?

[digitalabsolute]

The ole "Plug-In" Error.

Yessir, I'm getting it for the AAC encoded files on my 5500.

Anyone else having the problem? It's really like those high quality ringers, no matter the size!!!

Help?

[digitalabsolute]

Nevermind. Incompatable phone.

*shoots self in head*

[mike@d-d-n.com]

fixed the volume controling. and a few other things... should have absolutley NO problems now

[currupt247]

volume is still horribly soft. i set it at 100% loudest.

other than that its the coolest thing since... well .. canned pop :hee:

[Deval]

well i did learn something about the VM4500...QCP files sound really really really really really really low on this phone...which sucks!!

[currupt247]

boo :huh:

[RyanM]

Well the aac ringers work and sound great on the a700. Thanks so much and now I won't bother paying for 3gupload again! (and definately not sprint ringers :D )

[BeNT]

When using this converter, I change an mp3 to an aac and it is gets sent to my phone but it is silent. Michelle, you beautiful thing you, Help plz. Detailed insructions would be most appreciated on how you did this for your A700. :D

[ctnchrisw]

under the send aac to phone button the page says " Error:Cannot write to file", the the link to download the file myself is a 403.

[Deval]

we are changing servers right now, so some stuff might not be working...bear with us

[simpsonsadict]

we are changing servers right now, so some stuff might not be working...bear with us
do you think thats why when i click "click to preview" or "click to download" it sends me to a page that says"Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /beta/upload/1098667961.qcp on this server." and if i click "send qcp to phone" it sends it but then when i try to get to it from the text on my phone it says http error: 403 forbidden.

[Deval]

yeah...we are having some issues with the move...my DDN email is down :hee:

[lauch]

I tried it...first thing I got is when it shows the "preview/download' page, at the bottom, it says "error unable to write to disk" or something similar. Then I send it to my phone and it says "youdon't have permission to access....".

So bad on both fronts.

[sharkdamark]

It worked before, but I'd say for about the last week or so it doesn't work. I know it isn't something wrong on my end too becuase I havn't done anything different to my internet services or anything. Besides, when the songs were long sons (such as Kashmir by Led) it would take all day to upload the entire song.

[Merlyn_3D]

The whole thing just shows as being down now.

[mike@d-d-n.com]

we currently have an exclusive version for DDN customers. you can crop volume control all that stuff with a DDN account. the beta project has been taken down for time being.

we have a new system inplace that lets you upload any mp3 and we will make the QCP or AAC for you. (OR mp3 - gsm OR amr - nokia)

any questions lemme know

[ctnchrisw]

any idea why the aac part of personal space disapeared?

[mike@d-d-n.com]

its still there, just add a "Voice Tone" it will prompt you during download for the bit rate / volume.

[ctnchrisw]

will that send in aac or mp3 though? When I joined the other nite there was creat aac and upload aac. It shows me as using space because of the one aac I uploaded, but it doesnt give me access to it. Also, I cant post on the d-d-n forums, cant click in the text box :| (using firefox).

[Deval]

what happens when you goto your personal space and try to send to your phone from there?

That's only because so many feel so privileged due to socialism. EDIT: I know this is a strong statement...please bear with me...

America is about rugged individualism...that if you have a problem, you actively seek a solution and implement it.

Since about the 1940's, it's been about helplessness...that someone else needs to "answer all the questions."

You should be very afraid of people who have ALL the answers...

So is there a downloadable version of this ? I do not like "website utilities" or middle men (no offense) otherwise will stick with pvconvert for now until a local side non online utility is available. Ie drop an mp3 make a qcp let me worry about getting it to my phone.

I can not even test your utility since it seems I must create an account which I refuse to do (I hate being forced into signing over my information to yet another site)

If you have PV converter already what else do you need? QCP ringers are going to sound bad no matter what you are converting with.

[nerys]

it would just be nice to not have to convert everything to the picky pcm format that it wants being able to just throw mp3's at it would be nice and for phones that do not support anything but midi and qcp its better than nothing :-)

[Deval]

well all the moto phones support straight mp3...so do most of the newer phones
