Hi i just converted a .mp3 to .wav but it aint working i think its because i havent got in 44KHz or 22KHz or 11KHz is there anyway i can get it to that?

You can use a audio editing program such as Cool Edit (Now called adobe premiere) to save your WAV file with any parameters that you choose. I would save the the WAV file as Mono, 22KHz.You can also convert between any formats such as MP3 to WAV.

If you still are keen on using MP3 format in your game/app, all you would have to do link libmad to your game setup. Libmad allows you to use MP3 files in your code. With the library installer that I posted in the other thread, it already installs libmad into your PSP's environment setup. Look into libmad.h to see all the MP3 functions that you can use in your source code.
Again though, it is just easier to record or download your music and sound files and open them up in an audio editor such as adobe premiere and save your file as a WAV mono file with 22KHz frequency.

Well when I used Cool Edit, all I did was record my sound or downlaod my sound and open it with Cool Edit and then I saved my file as a WAV format 22KHz frequency and in mono not stereo

If you are using audacity, just use "export as WAV format".

I wonder what you are doing wrong. Post the song that you are trying to convert and I will see if I can convert it for you. I think you just might not be setting the path correctly when you use the wav2bgm program.

That is something that you need to explore and learn on your own. It wouldn't help you if I did everything for you to create a game. If I created the whole game for you, then you would never learn on your own. The way most people learn how to make homebrew is that they create their own source files and experiment with it until it works. Believe me, I am doing you all a favor by giving out these lessons and not just writing up an entire game and just giving out the source to the game. I'm trying to give you all the tools you need to create your own games and apps for the PSP.
