Recording Formats
Your Pocket PC supports several formats for voice notes. The formats vary in
both the quality of the recording and the size of the sound file. When selecting a
recording format, you should consider the quality you need as well as how much
storage memory the recording will use on your Pocket PC.
Not all recording formats are compatible with other software or computers. If
you will share your recordings with others or transfer a recording to your
desktop computer, be sure to choose a recording format that is supported by the
software used to play recordings on the other computer.
The PCM format offers the highest quality recording and is compatible with all
Pocket PC models, other Windows-powered mobile devices and desktop
computers that use Windows operating systems. The GSM 6.10 format is
compatible with all Pocket PC models and other Windows-powered mobile
devices, but may not work with desktop computers.
To select a recording format:
1. Tap Settings Input .
2. On the Options tab in the Input control panel, select a voice recording format
from the drop-down list.
The list of recording formats on your Pocket PC indicates the sample rate,
whether the format is stereo or mono and how much storage memory is required
per second of recording. You may need to experiment with different sample
rates and formats to determine which format best suits your voice.
