  1. batch renaming file extensions .WAV to .wav


    Hi folks,my audio devices produce thousands of .WAV files. To analyze them I use a R-package, but the scripts are using ".wav" , so the commands do not work with my files. I tried to rename them with a couple of files in a test folder on the C: drive withren *.WAV *.wavThis worked perfectly. BUT my files are stored on an external drive E: So I set the path in cmd to the folder with my files also a test folder, to be sure and used the same command as before, but nothing happens. I searched through some forums for a solution, but could not find one. The files have no limitations for writig or

    Hello MichaelAMcMillan,



    Thank you for posting in the forum!



    Microsoft is aware of this issue. It has to to do with old type of wav files.

    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...wav-file/603a0d71-01c0-432b-815b-1f1737ad2ff6

    The only option right now is to check with your provider and/or phone system and make a system wide change for the audio recording wav format.

    Original recording format = PCM MU-LAW (G.711)

    New recording format = Linear PCM

    Once you have done that it will work perfectly.

    I had our IT on campus change this and it works perfectly,



    Also you can vote for the availability of this function here:

    Have a nice day!
