bobbyashmore Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 I am a newbie and have searched but can't find anything about whether there is an Atrac plugin for WMP10? and if so where can I get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrius Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 You need to install Sonicstage 3.2 or 4.0, and that will install the necessary codecs so you can use WMP. There are no plugins per se. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cochra1 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Good I've found & read this topic, I never knew about the ability to read ATRAC files through WMP. I do now & am using it right now. Works great. Crossfading. Quicker start-up. EQ. Humm! Thanks. Shame auto volume leveling doesn't apply for it though, like the dynamic normalizer on RH1. One can't have everything, I guess...Hi Wizard! Sorry my friend, I couldn't let that comment about the volume limiter go without a response!I can't believe you like that (although I'm not criticising you, so please don't take offence). Most people hate it; it was put there as an EU regulation (Nanny State) to protect our poor wittle ears! It has a detrimental effect on the sound quality when played at upper volume levels (squashes and compresses the sound - but don't confuse this with data compression, this is audio dynamic compression).American players (at least true last time I researched this) don't have this limiter installed and thus have been very popular with buyers in Europe obtaining them from the USA via mail order.

Syrius Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Hi I have Sonic stage 4.0, What do I need to do to get the Atrac files to run in Media Player? Not The brightest!Nothing else. Just right-click your ATRAC/OMA files and select Open with>>> WMP. And That's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
