WAV files not supported??

Bobfreeze · 11-22-2011, 04:32 PM

According to Kobo's own specifications, WAV audio files are supported by the Vox, however when I try to open one, it tells me the file type cannot be opened!?! Even when selecting the stock "Music" app I cannot open it.

Any ideas?

I can't help you with x.wav, but I do for a fact know that x.wma files work like a charm. A whole slew of them are already downloaded and playable on my Vox.

I thought also that x.wav was enabled....hmmm.

I'm not sure if the built-in player will play wave files, but there are tons of music players out that that can. An Android tablet is more like your laptop than your ereader in that regard. When you get your laptop there are tons of "features" that you need to find additional software for.

I'd recommend looking at MoboPlayer.
