<br>For the archives, I tracked the problem to the encoder settings I was using to convert other sound formats to mp3.<br><br>The default encoder settings had a bitrate of 128 Kbps. This appears to be handled by WMP no problem, but gives the Alvin the Chipmunk effect within Xerte.<br><br>Boosting the encoder bitrate to 190 Kbps minimum seems to have solved it.<br><br>Dave <br> <br><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Subject: RE: [Xerte] Sound rate?<br>Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2009 19:56:36 +0000<br>From: Patrick.Lockley@nottingham.ac.uk<br>To: xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<br><br>
