Re: SHN to WAV converter HELP (Windows VISTA)
I found a solution. There's a program out there called Magic JellyBean SHN Shortener. This converts your shn to .mp3 or .ogg files, now those being lossy files this isn't perfect. However what the program actually does is to convert them to .wav, then to .mp3 and then applies id3 tags/renames etc.. it then deletes the wav files it had created to do the mp3 encoding. So here's what i did, give it a large number of shn files to convert to mp3, while its doing that you can go into its installation directory and see a batch file that it has created. THis batch file does the actual work of converting to wav, then to mp3 then deleting wav. I made a copy of the batch file and edited it so as to skip the mp3 part, just convert to wav and be done with it. THe program has a few executables that do the work ie shn->wav flac->wav wav->mp3 wav->ogg. I'm not sure if this is "proper use" of the program but it is a workaround, and the only one I've found so far that works with vista. Just a note, you need to use the "Run As Administrator" in vista to do this, otherwise the program cannot write its batch file & you can't take a peek at it.
Hope this helps!
