Default which format is this song file??


What i am doing is this: i am downloading a song From this page:
sona, Listen and Download Songs of sona, download music of sona, Download MP3 Songs of sona
but as i right click and save the file it is saved as .html as extension.
if i simply rename the file as .mp3 or .wma it runs on windows media player but not on my nokia n72 or any other mobile.(which plays only mp3 or wav etc.)
so is there any way to find out the correct format of this fileso that i can use a converter of that type to convert it to mp3 file and njoy it on a mobile....

Try this tool to identify the file format and codec required to play it:

The problem occurs due to incorrect placement of song in the phone. Try to save it in music or videos folder.
Try to download core player on your mobile....!

The file format is WMA. I tried to download it through Firefox. You can convert WMA to MP3 using the freeware SUPER.

Haha.. Glad to know it helped GSpot identifies "real" file type and codec required to play even if file's extension is changed...
