Right the majority of my MP3's run at 192kbps, which is fine for running on my PC. But I have been advised that the batteries on my MP3 player will last much longer if this is lower say under 100kbps. So are there any tools/converters that you have that can do this. Are there any disadvantages? And will the file size decrease? Thanks in advance...

Download the slightly earlier version of CDex. The newest one seams to bsod all the time.

Erm, it will probably only effect the battery life by minutes, maybe an hour tops. But Im not sure about MP3 players so tell me how it goes eh?

Oh cool. Thanks a lot. At the mo i have converted 2 songs, both are half their orginal size an as far as i can hear there is no change in quality. It now means i can fit more songs on to the MP3 player itself, so i dont need to buy another SM card, and hopefully the battery life'll be a bit longer. Oh and they will download onto the MP3 player quicker. w00t

No you can specify more than one song...

4 minutes sounds about right.

That DBPowerAmp one converts them, but takes 4mins on the longish songs and as far as i know only does them 1 at a time?

Yes, I think it will, but not sufficiently enough to notice.
