How can I import Windows Media Player music or InterVideo music? Do I have to change the filetype first?

I believe so... I'm not certain, but I think it needs to be in .mp3 format, or possibly .wav, though I'm not sure about the .wav part. I do know that .mp3 format is pretty much universally supported in the sound editor.

There are programs out there that can convert different types of media files into .mp3's, but the way I do it is I record stuff digitally, straight from the computer. I ought to write a tut on how to do that some time... You don't need a mike or any special hardware to do it, either. You do need a program that is capable of recording and saving things as .mp3's, but those aren't usually too hard to find. I personally use Power .MP3 Recorder, but there are lots out there.

If you want a basic idea of how to set your computer up to record things digitally, with Windows XP, you go to the Control Panel, then Audio, find Sound Recording Volume (the window with words like Mic, Line In, CD Player, etc. across the top, which can be found in one of the tabs) and check Stereo Mixer while unchecking all other boxes, and whatever sounds are coming out of your speakers are recordable ^_^

If you didn't understand that, PM me or something and I'll see if I can give you more details. Hope this helps!

I think it is .mp3 format, because .wav is usually for windows, and warcraft 3 is not only a windows program.
if u already have ur music then like Kirbot said just make it .mp3 format.
If u cant find a program to convert it i will gladly do it for u. here is my email my email
