*.wma sound files

Is it possible to implement the .wma sound file types for Scratch?  Because I was wanting to make a project that had background music, but the file wouldn't import.

Re: *.wma sound files

It's going to be difficult to do that because WMA is a proprietary format

Um, that doesn't seem to work.  Am I missing something, or do I just have a different version?

I tried to think of something else I could import/export from, and the first thing that came to mind was Scratch.  Obviously, that wouldn't work, since Scratch was the main reason I wanted it converted in the first place.  big_smile
