Mp3 On Blu

[dookie4fun]

how do i play mp3s on the gp32 blu?

Download an mp3 player program. Place the Mp3's in mp3 folder. Tis all you need to do.

Download that. It is an MP3 and WMA music player by Omega5. It's probably the best MP3/WMA player to be found on the GP32.

Put that fxe in your GPMM folder, and put all your MP3s or WMAs in the MP3 folder on your SMC (I suggest using WMA format to save space).

I use GPmadMP3 ... (I think that's what it's called) and it works perfectly, but will give that one ^ a go. Thanks for the link

am I correct in thinking you have to rename your mp3's to 8.3 format before copying over or do the transfer programs you can get do it on the fly? I guess if you have correct id3 info tags it will still display the full song title etc even though the file names been cut?

Gp-Managers MP3 function will change the filesnames to 8.3 format
and add ID3 headers of the old filename (optional). Gpdrive/Phodrive will happily
copy the file over with it's full name, but most mp3 players won't be able
to read all of the name. So for best results, put a ID3 header on yourself.
Then it will have the right name you want with the naming conventions you
want in most mp3 players.

Or do what I do and use FREEDB and hope it works good. I like to
rip directly from cd to .OGG format and play it in Gpamp.
The advantage is, more files can fit, and you can use Winamp skins!

Skins, skins, what about plugins?
What is FREEDB, BTW? WAV to Vorbis converter?

I rip my cd's to OGG with FREERIP. FREERIP can use the FREEDB server
to give it the proper ID3 tagging.
