changing file type to mp3

[ssv]

I have downloaded some music files from audio galaxy. It shows the type of file as .TEMP. I am able to play it in winamp. But I couldn't burn it into audio cd because of this format. How can I change this format to .mp3?

try using your windows recorder (start,program,accesories,sound recorder)and record it as .wav then convert it to mp3

I tried that already. When I try to open the file in sound recorder it says "The file is not a a valid WAVE sound file.

Rename the .temp to .mp3.

There is no filename.temp. It shows the type of file as temp only in the property window of the file. so how do i rename.

Go to View tab on the top of the window where the file is. Click that and go down to File Options... Then go to View. Find the box that says Hide File Extensions for Known File Types. Uncheck that box and hit apply. Now you change the extension just like you could before for the name. Go back and reverse the process to hide the extensions.

Whenever I find very stubborn mp3s(downloaded of course), I run them through Graphedit, and make them wavs. These are the ones that won't work directly, or won't open in Goldwave.
