Recognize audio format - so it'll work
If you don't know what audio format a song is, you can recognize the format using Windows or special software. In this guide, we will show you how this works.
Windows: Detect audio format
- Right-click the audio file and choose Properties. The file type is shown at the top. Alternatively, switch to the "Details" tab above and search for the "Element type" category below.
- With the free tool MediaInfo you can open the audio file and read out all important information.
- Advanced users not only experience the format and quality with the GSpot software, but also lots of other information.
