The Precision installer installs Windows Media Audio 9 Codecs. The codecs would only have installed if you have
Windows Media Player 7 or higher installed. If encoding to the WMA 9 format does not work properly, the best
way to get it working is to download and install the Windows Media Player 9 from www.microsoft.com
It provides the necessary Player upgrade and the 9 series codecs.
WM Player 9 is only available for Windows 98 Second Edition, ME, NT, 2000 and XP. Therefore, Windows
95 and 98 First Edition users may only be able to encode to the WMA 8 format.
Click the WAV-WMA-OGG tab.
Make sure an output location has been selected for your converted files by clicking Select

Click the 8 button
or the 9 button
to select the type you want to encode to.
