6kbps, 8kHz WMA files and Sanyo ICR-85000
Hello,
Does anyone know where codecs are kept on a Windows XP drive?
I've been sent a 6kbps, 8kHz WMA file recorded on a Sanyo ICR-85000 recorder (a dictation recorder). I can't play or open it on the laptops (W7 and a MacBook Pro).
I used to be able to play and open these types of WMAs with an old Goldwave on the desktop running XP, or with an older Goldwave on an old G4 running running Virtual PC.
Here, I only have the laptops but I do have the physical hard drive from the desktop, and I do have an Icybox to connect it. So I was hoping it might be possible just to copy a folder from the desktop's drive to the W7 laptop. But which folder?
I've tried copying a few folders of codecs that I downloaded but that hasn't done it. I can only imagine that I must have loaded some software at some point that had this blasted codec. But where would that have been stored?
Failing that, does anyone know where a codec's nipples are so that I can give this one's a hefty tweak?
