Topic: Convert r24 to wav

[MacGyver]

Hi,
Can i please get this r24 to wav converter and instructions sent to me?
Thx.

Hey SA-Cowboy.  Welcome to the board!

There are various tools.  Tell us what you're trying to accomplish.  Are you trying to convert a file to wav, or are you trying take a generic file and convert it to use on the system.  Also have you been able to isolate the files in the tree?

[SA-Cowboy]

thanks for the reply.
we have the issue with getting the voicemail files from the intel-tel
format r24 to be saved as a wav for management to use outside of the voicemail message.
i have seen the previous posts and it looks like this converter tool mentioned is what i need.

Would you mind sending the conversion tool and instructions over to me, please?

We just got a customer that we have installed a ShoreTel system in and we want to re-use some of the announcements and greetings, so the conversion tool will help us greatly.

Thank you very much in advance!

thanks.

Hey guys:

Sorry for the delay in responding.  Ken is on vacation, so I've been a little backed up.

It sounds like you're both going from .r24 to .wav and not trying to do batches.  We've got a GUI driven version that should take care of you without all the headaches.  I'll try and get it zipped up so you're email will allow it and get it out today when I get to the office.

BTW welcome to the board.

Thanks very much! I look forward to being a part of this board. We've got some Comdial/Vertical techs and I'm our ShoreTel Engineer so I think we can bring a lot to this site!

You're very welcome, and we look forward to your input.  BTW, be sure and let your Comdial techs know that one of our Administrators, Larry (aka CMDL_GUY) is actually a former Comdial Engineer.  He actually designed many of the things they work with today, and is a HUGE asset when you run into things that you just can't quite figure out.  

SA_Cowboy, I got both you and celtictech set up.  I didn't get a bounce back so I suppose the files were delivered to both your email boxes.  The version I sent you is a bit limited in its use, but runs from a GUI and is very user friendly compared to the other versions.  If you need any help, just post back in this thread and one of us will take care of you.

Welcome to the board, and don't be a stranger.  

Oh BTW, you'll need to rename the file extension back to .exe.  I changed it to .ex_ so your mail severs wouldn't reject it.

mac,
thanks for the inter-tel convert r24 to wav program.
seems that i am having a problem with it.
when i run the program and select the input file as r24 then the output box is prompting me to keyin a name for the file as a wav.
when i give it a name, ie - test, then click save, then i get a couple of error messages.
1) a box with red x titled: c:\convert.exe - message box: c:\convert.exe. the parameter is incorrect - OK click box. when click on it it goes to message #2.
2) message box title error: could not execute the external program c:\convert.exe - OK click box.
put this on my desktop, in the C: drive root, and both give the same error.
am i doing something wrong?
help please!

That usually indicates you're browsing to a foreign location for the files.  Try this; put the conversion program in your C:\ directory.  Also make sure the file that you want to convert is in that same root directory.  Now when you go to do the conversion, look at the file structure pull down at the top and when you browse to the .r24 file, make sure you're looking at the copy that is in C:\.  Also make sure the destination directory is C:\ as well.

Lastly, remember even though this is working from a GUI (of sorts) DOS rules still apply, so limit your file names to 8 characters plus the extension and don't try to run the program from a 64 bit OS.

Try that and if it still doesn't work I'll set you up with a different path.

mac,
putting the .r24 recording files and the inter-tel conversion program in the c: root directory was the solution.
the .r24 files i tested converted to .wav successfully.
thanks again many times over for your help.

Glad I could help.  Don't be a stranger.

I'm in the beginning stages of an Inter-tel migration and could use the tool for converting the files to a .wav format to bring into our new system.  I'm comfortable with either a GUI or DOS based utility as we will be moving mailboxes on both a departmental (batch) and individual user level. 
This would save me a ton of time over setting up a temporary mailbox, doing the UC client and forwarding all those voicemails to the mailbox.

Thanks in advance,

Tony

Hi Tony:

Welcome to the board.

Sorry for the delay but we were all out yesterday.  I just sent the tool you'll need to the email address in your profile.  Just rename it back to a dot exe, and you'll be good to go.

Hi,
I am currently doing a PBX conversion and need to convert our r24 audiotex recordings to wav files.  Can I please get this r24 to wav converter and instructions sent to me? I am comfortable with DOS commands and scripting.

Thanks in advance
