hey everybody,
my basic problem 's that i have problems with converting audio,aiff,or wav into mp3. I work on mac g3 running OS9.2 using Logic, Peak, soundapp & itunes.
now the only software to convert to mp3 is itunes. however each time I try to upload a song it always failes because of an audio/mpg mime. obviously the itunes converter isnt verry clean.
does anybody know a freeware convertor for mac os9.2 wich converts without mistakes or mime's?
otherwise I will have to keep going to my partner in bass 'SOI' to convert my aiff's into mp3.
tnx a lot.

The MIME type is set by the browser, not by the MP3 encoder. The MIME type for MP3 files differs between browsers, but generally it is either 'audio/mpeg', 'audio/mp3' or 'audio/x-mpeg'.
With some browsers you can set the mime types for different file types manually.
But don't bother, I'll add the 'audio/mpg' MIME type to the MP3 checking routine, so your uploads will pass this check

Done 
Your uploads should work fine now. Do you use a standard browser config? I'm very keen in getting this to work for all Mac users, since IMO Macs are the shit for making music and I assume several serious dnb producers have bought one.
BTW moved this thread to the appropriate forum. your question had nothing to do with producing

yes indeed the problem is solved 
.
the question about my browser is one I cannt answer, because i know 'the balls' of browsers, operating systems, mpeg's ,... ,... . (pffff) 
I do know that this is a 'iMac DV SE G3/500 128MB/30GB/DVD/128 Pro/56k Graphite'. (copied it) I never changed anything so I guess all is standard.
hope you became a little bit wiser.
hear ya!!
