Lossless Audio support in build 7720 and Zune 4.8? - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm running build 7720 on my HD7 and syncing my phone with Zune Software version 4.8.
All music on my computer is in WMA Lossless format. When I was on NoDo, every time I would sync music to my phone, Zune would automatically convert all my music to MP3s because the lossless format was not supported by Windows Phone 7.
But now when I sync my phone using 7720 and Zune 4.8, I no longer see it converting my files as they sync to my phone.
My conversion settings in Zune are set to "Only convert files not supported by this device".
Can anyone else confirm this?
Lossless music for life!

Yeah and even the .m4a format is now working too, i had some podcast feeds coded that way and now im able to ear them all, way to GO!

Hi guys. I'm still having problem with my hd7... By the way Im using mango shipped rom. But zune still convert my wma lossless music files to mp3 when syncing to HD7.
Any idea why this is happening? I've also set the zune settings to "Only convert files not supported by this device". but it still convert the files T_T. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks alot.

Syncing recorded TV Via Windows Media Player

Hi, Hoping this one hasn't been posted already - couldn't find it in a search.
I use Windows Media Centre in Vista to record TV shows. I then use Windows Media Player to auto sync those shows to my Pocket PC (TyTN II but that shouldn't be important here).
When syncing, Windows Media Player does alot of (essential) file conversion, which slows down the syncing process. Does anyone know if it's possible to set WMP to do this conversion as soon as the file is recorded, so that when I plug the device in I don't have to wait for conversion?
Sorry I dont' know. I use tivo to record, which transfers to my pc, and from there I stream it using winamp remote.
but you might not have an unlimited data plan i guess

[Q] Zune software not recognizing all MP3 files?

Hi guys. I am running the Zune software but it will not recognize the MP3s that are above 128kbps MP3 quality. What do I do? Most of my music files are between 192 - 320 kbps. Anyway to fix the software or at least move the files onto my phone other than the Zune software.

I had a very similar problem to this earlier today, what fixed it for me, was instead of letting the Zune software find all my music automatically, I dragged the entire my music folder directly onto the zune software, amazingly it found all of my files then.
Dragged it into what part of the Zune? I have tried dragging and I am not sure where to drag it into.
i never had any problem with any mp3 file
i keep em in an extra folder
added the folder to the zune libary in settings....
from time update the information with zune social tagger

[Q] Synching FLAC files with WMP12 to Android 2.3.4

Hi all, i'm trying (to no avail) to sync some FLAC tunes i have on my Windows Media Player 12 Library to my Samsung Galaxy S (Gingerbread 2.3.4). WMP says the file may not be reproduced properly on the device when i know for a fact that simply by copying them to the phone PowerAmp plays them fine. Is there a way to un-dumb WMP?
thanks in advance,

[Q] WMP Lossless Audio-->Zune-->WP7

Here is my problem: I am trying to add some WAV files(lossless audio setting) to Zune via a direct copy of the files from an SD card to my PC. The audio files are from a CD that I own and ripped in that particular format. I have instructed Zune to look to a specific folder on the PC for music(the one that contains all of my audio files I would like to transfer to my WP7 device). Zune doesn't see these newly added files(older music files are there as well) and I am at a dead end in what to do to get them onto my phone. Any help is greatly appreciated. FYI-when I try to "Play with Zune" from a right click on the mouse, they won't play in Zune. When I try the same thing with WMP, it plays in WMP...go figure! I would just love to be able to drag and drop to add files to my Focus! Help?!

I would say, Zune doesn't support .wav extension. I recommend to convert it to .mp4 or .wma. Recommend to use some pro editor like Goldwave. Depend on you, but yeah, Zune does not support .wav
I just figured that out after staring at the file association page in the Zune setting. They need to support their own files!

Not a completely bad thing. WMA lossless does sound pretty darn good, sadly though I don't think any "Phone" has the sound processing to let the files sound their best. If you want some damn good audio quality, the Zune HD was pretty much king as far as a SMP.
Hi
I learnt that Mango supports the wma lossless as mentioned in the thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1221284&highlight=lossless
Is that true? Anyone tried?
My act was to drag converted wma lossless with mass storage enabler before mango. However the prob was the tags were wiped off
Would be great if Zune 4.8 supports wma ll

[Q] Buy Music on WP7, have on PC later?

Hello,
I have bought Music from Zune before, but I did so using the Zune Software on the PC. There you get an MP3 file and you can of course do what you want with it including syncing it to a WP7.
I am also aware that you cannot redownload DRM free MP3s so you have to keep your copy safe.
How does this work when you buy Music directly on the phone?
Is there any way to get the files on your PC later so that you can play them on the PC? Does the Zune software allow you to copy music from your phone to your PC?
If so, does this affect the quality? I belive that Zune offer 320kbps files, will those files be downloaded to my phone?
You can simply plugin your device into your PC and sync the music you downloaded with it with Zune. Dunno if it happens automatically, but you can simply right click the file and then choose "copy to my collection". I have two files here that I downloaded directly with the device and then synched it to my PC. Both have a 256kBit bitrate.
U can also use WiFi sync by enabling it in the options in Zune.
Unfortunately, Zune suffers from the same memory leak that plagued WMP, my advice is make CD copies of your music. A plus is when I download from Zune, a copy automatically goes to Windows Media Player on the PC.

Thanks it worked as expected and there was no quality change (320kbps on PC).
