Page 24 highlights

There are many advantages in using the converter, such as: • When converting a file, the size of the converted audio or video file is usually much smaller than the size of the original file. Therefore, the playback on the Nokia 9290 Communicator does not require much processing power and is more fluent. Many files cannot be played at all on the Nokia 9290 Communicator without conversion. • When playing back a WAV file with your Nokia 9290 Communicator, the quality of the sound is better. Note: Multimedia converter supports most files that you can play in Windows Media Player. The exact set of supported files depends on the version of Media Player installed in your PC and on the installed audio and video codecs. Typically, Multimedia converter is able to support most AVI, WAV, MPG and MP3 files. To optimize an audio-only file 1 In the menu, select File> Open. A dialog opens. 2 Browse to the audio file you want to convert and click OK. The file information is transferred to the Original file fields on the left side of the window. The fields display the file type, file size and playback time. 3 Select one of the two options in the Audio format field: Low compression: For the best sound quality. Normal compression: For slightly lower sound quality but considerably smaller file size. 4 Click Convert. The file information of the converted file is transferred to the Converted file fields on the right side of the window. 5 In the menu, select File> Save as to save the new file. 22 Tip: Frame rate indicates the rate at which frames, the individual pictures that run in sequence create the illusion of motion, are displayed in a film or video. Frame rate is measured in frames per second (fps). The less frames used, the more the video stutters.
