Darren,
My experience agrees with Petro's and I don't think I ever really had a problem setting these conversions when entering a new show. I wanted to double-check my own settings before weighing in on this. I agree with Petro about not maintaining the default naming conventions as far as possible. In shows that I have successfully converted, the filename looks like showname.date.asf.mp3. Are you able to play your files using player of choice? I ask only because you may or may not have directed Winamp to handle .asf files should you wish it to do so. If you have associated Winamp with this file extension, you should still be able to play and move about within .asf files even if the conversion did not occur for whatever reason. I apologize if I have failed to understand the problem. Let us know whether you can play the files and/or what steps you took to attempt to convert them and I or others can probably help further.

Susan

To keep things simple here. The recorded files will be named:
my-show-name-asf.mp3
my-station-mame-asf.mp3
So it could look like this
WABC-asf.mp3
computer-america-asf.mp3

This is normal. You can remame the files if you do not want the "asf" in the file name by highlighting the file and pressing F2 keyboard key. Or use your applications keyboard key to rename it to:
WABC.mp3
computer-america.mp3

If you recorded files are named to
WABC.asf
computer-america.asf

Then you have not told "show properties" to convert correctly within Replay AV 8. Check the shows's basic tab sheet. You may have told RAV 8 to keep the original recording via the output tab within show properties. This is a checkbox. If you did then you will get a asf.mp3 and .asf file for the same show recording you made. So double check.

As for Winamp's title bar saying Replay within the Winamp player I am not sure but if you right click the audio file, choose properties, tab over to the "Summary" tab and go inside you will see a "title" edit box where you can change the name/tag. There is also an advanced opption within the summary property sheet where you can edit even more the the tag for your file. I haven't really tinkered with this area much but I am sure others can tell you more.

I leave everything on their defaults.

Hope this helps you.

Hi, I have a question about the conversion after a show is
recorded. I set
it to convert to mp3 in the show properties and when I look
at the file it
has .asf in the file name but it says that its an mp3 file.
how do I get it
to name files correctly. also when I play a file in winamp
in the title bar
it says replayav how can I change this. thanks
