media.io is now much more awesome.

What’s new?

• More privacy. Resolving this problem, in addition to adding Cache-Control: private headers to most pages, ensures that the details of your uploads are hidden from me and proxies.
• Support for files without extension. When you convert audio online at media.io now, your file doesn’t need an extension.
• Support for WAV encapsulated MPEG audio. This was a common cause of problems.
• Support for WMA. media.io now supports decoding from and to Windows Audio.
• There’s now a table that explains what formats are supported.
• Easier file uploading. I’ve posted a screenshot of the new upload progress bar before. I hope you like it.
• A different look. I did rearrange certain links on the page. Also, I incorporated some ideas I got from the user tests I ran on media.io.

Coming soon

Some of the things I will enable soon is support for FLAC.

Screenshots

I’m attaching two screenshots to this post, the first one is “before,” the second one “after.” Enjoy.

media.io now lets you convert MP3 to WAV online, as well as

• Ogg Vorbis to WAV
• AAC to WAV

I admit that WAV isn’t the most popular target format but some people have been looking to “decode MP3 to WAV” – search engines simple don’t understand that, if I say “convert WAV to MP3,” I don’t automatically support converting MP3 to WAV. :-)

I know there are some strange bugs that some people (including myself) run into occasionally. If you experience a problem with media.io, simply file a bug, describing what you did and what you expected to happen.
