• Only able to compress the file 14 KB, why?

  I want to compress a Word Document using Windows Vista Zip and compress file folder of 34 MB to 22 MB, but I have only 14 KB of memory of zip. What I am doing wrong?

  Hello

  
  There is no option to customize the size of the zip file in Windows Vista. To compress the file to the size you mentioned, you will need to download a zip program to third parties using your favorite search engine.
   
  Important:
  
  With the help of third-party software or a link, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third party software or link can be resolved. Using third-party software or a link is at your own risk.

• Why MATLAB cannot read wav files OR? Mind wav compression errors.

  I write, 1-n-channel, 24-bit wav files using the standard vi OR its file Open/Close/Write (DBL) found in LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\sound2\lvsound2.llb. This application data are acquired from a NOR-9234 via USB-9162 or NOR-cDAQ-9172. My wav files are readable by many readers of wav, including media player file (channels 1-2), SoundForge, and my own readers of LabVIEW wav file. However, MathLab is unable to read these files, saying they cannot deal with compressed wav format. As we read in the documentation of NOR, these files are decompressed. I found a player wav to header via the discussion forums and read my wav file. The compression code that was printed was-2 instead of 1 for uncompressed. Anyone had similar problems reading in MATLAB? Someone knows something about the importance of a - 2 for compression? My guess is that there is a word size problem here that MATLAB cannot process or NOR is not properly function.

  Well, I learned a little more since last we spoke. The standard MatLab wav player is wavread.m. This script must be able to read multi channels 24 bit files; but he does not read files from LabVIEW. We find a change to this script, called wavexread.m, which was developed to read wav files that use WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE. This format was developed by MS as an extended format to write multi channel + 24 bit files with more information included. LabVIEW wav files are readable by MatLab via the use of this script. Basically the script ignores formatting as if the compression for the PCM format setting was set to 1 (instead of-2 or, as we know it, "FEFF"). I tried rewriting the file binary wav and replaced the "FEFF" with "0100". This file is readable by the wavread.m of stock but not the wavexread.m extended; hiliting besides the fact that MatLab do not really care.

  However, I'll throw this back order to ask whether it is really necessary to use the extended format to write these files when the standard format would be sufficient. It sure would have made life much easier if my client did not need to worry about this.

  Thanks for your help.

• Error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file' when try to play wav or midi files.

  Original title: WMP "can't play wav or midi.

  Using WMP 11 on Windows XP SP3.

  Windows Media Player has somehow forgotten how to play wav or midi files. Doubleclicking either of these file types give an error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. " There is a button 'Close' and 'Web Help' which still informs me, "you met the C00D1199 error message... ". ». Following the advice given nothing less than useful.

  I can easily play these files with RealPlayer or VLC so I don't think it's a driver problem, and it wasn't a corruption right after installing the other players. WMP seems to work OK when playing music or AVI. And there is no harm to hear a sound (wav or midi) in Windows for various system events. Have already uninstalled/reinstalled WMP without result.

  Thanks for your reply.

  I have since determeined the problem comes from an updated codec package I installed a few weeks ago. These codecs were from Shark007 which I believe is a Microsoft MVP. Use the codecs from this site for a number of years without any problems so I did not initially suspect it was the source of the problem. I uninstalled the codec pack and installed K-light package and everything seems to be Ok now. Now, I'll be in contact with the members of this forum.

• iTunes conversion of WAV files

  I am in itunes on a pc running Windows 7 is more the opportunity to convert songs to mp3. I can, however, convert to WAV files. I don't understand not the point of this, because itunes purchases are downloaded to the lossy AAC format. How can these files be converted to WAV lossless data must already have been lost in the initial compression? Can someone explain in terms very SIMPLE, as I am a technologically challenged person.

  Thank you

  WAV setting is useful especially to import audio from a CD. If someone wanted their music is in mp3 format, then why would they shop at the iTunes Store? I don't understand the point of this, when Amazon.com offers a very wide music selection. Maybe someone can explain in terms very simple?

• Add data in the header of a .wav file

  Hello guys,.

  I seek your help for a small problem that I can't spend during my internship.

  Here's what I want to do: I acquire signals that I write a .wav file. What I would do then is to reopen this .wav file and add data in the header, such as the sensitivity of the microphone for example. I am doing this is because it's one of our program of works, it can resume the pressure vs time signal using this information. I already have the hex code I need to add, but I was not able to determine if such a thing is possible or not after a day of research ideas would be greatly appreciated. I wonder if Matlab might do the trick but I prefer to stay with the 'normal '... screws

  Thank you very much for your help.

  To insert data into the middle of a file, you will need to rewrite the entire file after that point, as Gerd said in the linked post.  I would do the following:

  1. Search for the location you want to put your new piece
  2. Read 65 000 bytes from forward and store in a local cache (shift registers work well for this, or just a wire at this point).
  3. Write your new piece, taking note of how long it is
  4. Give your data buffered less the length of your new song
  5. Read a 65 000 other bytes and put it in a new buffer
  6. Write the end of the old buffer and a part of the new buffer until you get to 65 000 bytes
  7. Repeat 4 to 6 until you reach the end of the file
  8. Update the offsets in the header to match the new locations of piece, since you have moved things

  You can probably do it with both data pads in a pair of registers at offset in a loop.  The 65 000 bytes is chosen for best performance.  You can use other sizes, but your speed can suffer.  Let us know if you encounter any problems.

• How to include a .wav file with vi the use of the application builder?

  Hello

  I am developing an application that uses a .wav file. I want to compress this file along with the vi in an executable so that the end user has a single file to run it.  Is it possible to add the .wav file to the executable using Application Builder? Moreover, to do this, can we configure the path to the .wav file in vi to always search for the file in the installation folder (for example: C:\Program Files\E2C\MSK or according to the user installs the executable folder in)?

  Thank you

  Anvy

  Anvy,

  It is not possible to compile a wav file in an executable file using LabVIEW. You can include the wav file in the project and include it in "still included" in your build script that will copy the file in the folder wav data from your executable file. So it is quite easy to distribute the wav with your exe file, even if the wav is not in the exe file.

  hope this helps,

  Norbert

• Cannot modify the properties file or Tags on .wav files

  Recently, I noticed that you cannot change the property information or the tag of the file on file .wav audio as you can do it on other types of audio.  Either using the file explore. change the properties or advanced in WMP11 tag editor, all the fields are grayed and shelter directly editing.  This is not the case for all other types of audio files, I tried.

  Curiously, the fields are editable by WMP if you can manually find Album Info or just edit the individual fields directly in the screen of the library.  Unfortunately, it is not acceptable, because it means that you can not change at the same time, more than a single field in a single file and then only if this field is represented as a column in the WMP library.

  It seems very strange to me; This seems to be a limitation in Windows itself, since even the file Explorer will not let update you the file properties (for example, title, subject, author, comments, etc.).  I really need to save as the original .wav files so they can be changed later (and not lose the content of compression), but I have no way to correctly annotate files!  Does anyone know of a way around this?  Thanx

  (Using XP on multiple computers - same problem on all of them.)

  Hello V7Goose,

  I think you'll have to come back to apply 3rd party to do what you are looking for.  Otherwise, it will take forever to tag your music one by one.  There are some that you can make a search that may be free.  I just found this one, I don't know if it of good or not, I wanted to give you an idea of what is out there.

• "Compress old files" not reset not in Windows XP

  After running Disk Cleanup with "Compress old files" checked, it shows still 79K. I rebooted and represented the disk cleanup, but still the 79K.

  Why the amount has not been reset to 0K?

  What would you choose to compress old files?

  Do you know what he does, how he does, why he does it and what are the consequences?  Most of the people do not - they choose just because it "sounds" like the right thing to do or it "could be" a good idea.

  A popular complaint from users is when they choose that option, their system seems to stop, maybe for hours while XP trying to understand what are the "old files" and what to do about them.  How do you know what is an "old file" and what happens if XP think files are old, but they are not old to you?

  The files more that you have on your system as much time it take and he can just stuck forever and never end up (or you might get tired of waiting).  If you have 1 million files on your system you can wait very long for cleaning disc finish or it can never end.

  And - if Windows find files to compress and that part works, and something you do on your system later needs these compressed files, they have to be unzipped before they can be used.  This will make your system run slower (while you wonder why it is and what to do about this).

  Here are some ideas to consider involving all withdrawal that disk cleanup option - then your disk cleanup will run in a Flash:

  Disk Cleanup runs slowly, the most likely reason seems to interrupt or uses excessive CPU is usually due to the option compress old files.

  Compress old files comes from the good old days, when hard drives were weak and slow, and he had to each byte, you can get on your hard drive for programs and things.  Today, thanks to modern technology, it is almost superfluous.

  Compress old files is supposed to compress the files "have not accessed for a long time" I never found someone who can explain what "were not consulted for a while" means.  What is 'a bit' to XP?  A week, a month, a year, 5 years, is it and how can we change it if you wanted to?

  If you want your clean disc to run faster, I would just remove the option compress old XP disk cleanup files since it is known to crash or give the illusion of being hanged.  If you have 1 million files on your system (or even a few hundred thousand), you wait very long when you run disk cleanup your system may appear to be hung (and maybe it is).

  I really don't think that with the technology available today that compress old files is necessary.  It would also slow down if XP needs unzip a file.  Besides, nobody seems to be able to tell me at what age an old file is in the XP terminology... what was simply a file become old?

  To get the best performance, I just remove this 'feature' and never see him again, and then disk cleanup runs in a Flash because it didn't get old files to compress (some old way).

  That adjustment will reduce considerably this time it will take your disk cleanup to run (I mean a lot).

  It is a 'problem' for some systems that Microsoft has done an article on how to disable it (mine is disabled).

• When running Disk Cleanup, it does not remove anything to "Compress Old Files'.

  When I run my disk cleanup, it does not remove anything to "Compress Old Files' during cleaning.» Why not? I also need more disk space to defragment and I deleted all the programs that I don't use, but is not yet give me enough disk space.

  Compress old files not removes all files, compress files that are rarely or seldom used.

  If you get the low disk space, less than 15-20% free space, then you need to collect as much space as possible. However, the amount you get will not be a solution, only a temporary fix - it that.

  To add or remove programs and Windows components in Control Panel, you can uninstall programs as your plue no use - if you have. Not to be far uninstalling programs, you do not recognize, many elements are required for other programs work properly.

  Uninstall or change a program
   http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/uninstall-or-change-a-program

  You can also check to see how much space is reserved for the restoration of the system; by default, many GBs are usually reserved. Also disable hibernation as the file created can be 2-3 GB, sometimes even more.

  You must also consider moving your files and folders on a removable media, such as DVDs or an external hard drive. Still a great flash drive with 4 + GB of space can help, and their prices are reasonable these days.

  In addition to Disk Cleaner, you can consider running CCleaner. This is a free program that will remove the unnecessary and temporary files temporary Internet files of the most popular and many browsers other caches that can be cleaned safely.

  Since you are using Windows XP, there is a setting in CCleaner to remove the uninstallers of patches; These are the Windows Update files you've downloaded and installed over time and are there if you ever want to uninstall the update. But you can save these CD/DVD and then remove them safely from your system to recover the space. If you have ever removed one of these, you may be able to get beyond 1 GB of space.

  CCleaner
   http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner

  If you decide to try it, by default, that almost everything in Windows Applications and is verified to be cleaned. You must first review the lists (they are compiled by what you have installed) and check/uncheck accordingly.

  Then click on analyze to see what will be removed (nothing is deleted when you click Analyze); When the scan is finished you can double-click on (or right click and select view detailed results) of the entries in the list to get more information.

  According to the detailed results, you can right click for options such as adding to the list of exclusions if you want the deleted item.

  Once that you are completely comfortable with your selections, you can click the run Cleaner button and then OK to put warn before vacuuming will run.

  CCleaner is also a registry cleaner that I don't recommend that you use - even if you have successfully run a registry cleaner in the past, it is quite possible that the next time will bring serious problems; they are not worth the risk...

  I know that this was not the miracle that you can have hoped, but personally recommended solution is a new, larger hard drive. In the case of desktop computers, an additional hard disk is useful for your personal files, especially for music, movies, photos and more.

  I hope this helps.
