i have a technical problem with my shorten files. i want to be able to convert my shn’s to wav’s, but i havent been able to. ive downloaded shntool, and programs of that nature (shn32 and all those things on etree) but my computer doesnt recognize any shn commands. i get an error. so, i dont know how to convert shn to wav. basically what i want to do is to be able to convert shn>wav>flac because i have a portable audio player that playsd flac files. so far, i havent been able to find a program that can do this automatically or have been able to convert shn>wav>flac. i think my comp. might not be able to recognize shn files, even though i can play them on winamp. can anyone help me with all this tech stuff??? i would greatly appreciate it. also, i didnt know where to post this, so i thought this was an appropriate spot. thanks in advance.
MKW Audio Conversion Tool. SHN>WAV
FLAC FrontEnd. WAV>FLAC (I think… I know it does FLAC>WAV… I think you can also go the other way… damn that FrontEnd is such a switch-hitter)
Hope that helps some!
ok, i try to run mkw and i get this message:
The system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and microsoft windows applications. Choose close to terminate the application.
i dont know why i get this message. ive tried it before and i still dont know what to do. thanks for the help tho. does anyone know why i get this message?
ha! i got it working. for some reason, it wont work on my laptop, but im using my home computer and it works. thanks!
I use Magical Jelly Bean…it always works well for me.
I use Trader’s Little Helper. http://thor.prohosting.com/roh0205/
Can do flac, shn, and some other stuff. Never had problem, and much easier than mkw.
Easier than MKW?? Im not sure if I dont know what I am talking about, but I just drop the files in the MKW window and it is done automatically… Maybe I am missing something here…
Sorry, install is easier.
MKW install has a couple of pages of instructions, TLH is a basic, standard install.
I had a similar problem, and found out that I was missing “Autoexec.nt”; a file that allows installation of a DOS-based program. Try this link:
