Frequently Asked Questions
A WMA file is an audio file in Microsoft’s Advanced Systems Format (ASF) container format. It saves audio data that has been encoded with the Windows Media Audio (WMA), WMA Pro, WMA Lossless, or WMA Voice codecs. Metadata objects such as the title, artist, album, and track genre are also in WMA files.
You can open WMA files with various audio players, including Microsoft Groove Music and Microsoft Windows Media Player (both are bundled with Windows), VideoLAN VLC media player (multiplatform), Audacious (Linux), and Nullsoft Winamp (Windows).
Most of the audio converters’ automatic and human transcription services have accuracy rates of 85% and 99%, respectively. When you need to convert audio into text documents quickly and don’t mind proofreading the final transcription, automated transcription is much faster and works well.
