Unknown audio file

[Matsaki]

I have a audio file from an EPOC 5mx/ericsson MC210. When I transfer that file to my computer it has no suffix such as .wav or similar.

How can I find out what the format the audio file is?

I thought it would be a wva file, but soundconverter will not accept/convert the file. This file is very important to me so I have to find a way to conver it to a wav or similar audio.

if i am not mistaken, it has it's own proprietary file type (meaning that only sony ericsons can play it)

'Ericsson' makes me believe that it could be a midi file. Could that be?

 

[JetwingX]

maybe, but arn't most polyphonic ringtones NOT midis now a days?

[........] has been giving me bad files lately

 

[Zammy-Sam]

the t610 has polyphonic ringtones as well and when I tried to upload a song over bluetooth, I had to use midi files. But I am not that sure anymore

Ericsson MC218 is not a phone, its a small hand computer. Its not midi, but a normal recording/sound file.

its a ABR file i dont know what will play it But i know it is that ( applogies for the lack of full stops my Lappy keyboard has no full stop key!!)

 

[Matsaki]

What is a ABR file? And whats the suffix for ABR .abr? Also the ericsson file can be saved compressed or un compresed.

 

[Browni]

its the music format that Erricson phones use. .abr is the suffix i dont know of a player that will player or decompress it

I was reading some thing about .wve format?
