Paddy,

In addition to John Ford's thoughts, if I recall correctly, BIAB 2015 did not come with mp3 codecs because mp3 was then still under patent restrictions.

While it's possible to load the conversion codecs by using software such as K-Lite, I used to prefer using a "WAV to MP3" converter in those days. There are heaps of freeware ones available on the internet. My choice was FREE AUDIO CONVERTER (link to website).

If mp3 is not specifically required and all you're looking to do is to compress the audio to a smaller sized file, BIAB will save in Windows compressed format (wma). Personally, I prefer wma over mp3 (and so does PG Music since all the Realtracks are wma files and not mp3 files).

Regards,
Noel
