When I make ringtones to use on my curve I usually output them as a .wav and when I get a call it will only play around 5 seconds of the tone, then repeat back to the beginning....is there a way to make it play the whole thing without looping..or is this just how it works.
Thanks

I noticed that my MP3 ringtones (full-length songs on media card) repeat after about 15 seconds or so. How long is your .wav? Don't they get rather large?
I'm interested in an answer to this question, myself.
.mp3 would be better, plus it's better quality. Whatever the duration of the 'song / tone' it should play for then start over. I've not tested it with a .wav file, so I can't comment on that...
mmk its the fact that its a .wav file that it only plays a piece of it, when i make a .mp3 a ringtone it plays it all till voicemail picks up. I only made the ringtones into a .wav before i got a media card to save space, but now i know.
I only use mp3 ringtones. Why use .wav? Yes mp3 is lossy but on a phone you won't fill the difference, it's for sure.
I'd recommend this online ringtone maker: makeownringtone.com
i use audacity, its a great program for editing audio files, i used waves before i got my memory card, i didnt have the space for MP3's! its all good now though mp3's play the whole song without looping
