New features, new GUI and now even less Bugs!

I’ve published a new version of media.io today that has several new features.

New Features

  • You can send anyone a link to download a file you’ve converted. Many people suggested I add this. The download link is valid for 30 minutes.
  • After downloading your converted audio files, you can start over. This way, files you have already downloaded will not show up again. Again, I’ve been asked to do this.
  • You can see which file extensions are supported, in addition to the maximum file size. This was something that might have annoyed one or two people so I implemented it.
  • There are now buttons to link to media.io If you have a site and would like to promote media.io, I’ve prepared some banners for you. Enjoy.

GUI Changes

In addition to these new features, I have implemented one or two subtle changes to the GUI. It’s now all white, as well as having Verdana as the body font which I find more legible than Arial. As usual, you will find screenshots of media.io “before” and “after” below.

Bug Fix

One thing I’m very excited about is a seemingly tiny problem I found a while ago and that I solved the same day. Fixing this bug has decreased audio conversion error rates by absolute 2.76 %, relative 38.48 %. For five lines of code changes, this is awesome.

As always, I hope you enjoy converting MP3 to WAV online and all the other file formats at media.io.

media.io update #3

The last three days weren’t overly productive, I must admit. iDotz dropped the configuration for media.io from their DNS servers so the site was unavailable until I switched DNS servers to someone else’s.

The good thing is I did not find any bugs and so could concentrate on getting some half-assed exciting GUI done, as well as a little bit of copywriting.

As you see in the screenshots below, it looks slightly more like my QR Code Generator now.

The reason is that people like invx.com because it's simple and, therefore, the site converts great.

Ideas? Suggestions?

There is a forum for your ideas and suggestions for media.io. If you have any audio formats you'd like to convert when media.io goes live, post an idea there. Posting is quick and can be made anonymously.

Screenshots

Oh yes, the screenshots… They’re below this post. :-)
