Hello, new member with .mmf conversion question (1 Viewer)

[langtang]

Hello. I just joined the group with a specific question in mind.

I have an .mmf file (old ringtone) that I have been told cannot be converted to another filetype as the codec is a proprietary one! Not sure what that means exactly, but just wanted to know how I can go about finding out:

A. what codec is needed to actually play the thing on my Win7 64 system and
B. how I can then go about converting it to use in my new smartphone (i don't now own the old phone that used to play it).

Sorry if this is not the correct forum and/or sub group to ask this question.

Regards & in advance for any help.
Dave

One of the first things i found via google.

One of the first things i found too, when i searched Google!

I have downloaded and installed (and removed) many, many programmes that claim to either playback, or convert to, say, mp3. I have failed on every count. I sent an email to one developer (because he asked me to), outlining my problem with converting this file, and it was he that said this was encoded with a codec that his programme does not support,and that it was a known problem.

But, thank you for your kind, quick and corteous reply.

Dave.
