Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) is an audio data compression scheme optimized for speech coding." Use a tool like sox to convert the files to mp3 or wav directly. sox /mypath/my_audio.amr /mypath/my_audio.mp3 or sox /mypath/my_audio.amr /mypath/my_audio.wav Then work with them in audacity. When you are done, if you want them back in amr, reverse the process with sox. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
