Customising Sound Alerts by WonderWabbit on 02-28-2009 at 09:45 AM

:| sorry -
cant find anything in your FAQ or forums here; even posting requests for help from WLM support getting a long #fault number, ive not had any response.

Problem:
Since the new change from MSN Messenger to any version WLM, the sound file playing time has suddenly become an issue - under 15 seconds i think it is.

Ive found as a feature of MessengerPlus! where you can increase the play-times you assign to your friends, and their actions (up to a maximum of 99 seconds) - which is good.

However, WLMessenger itself has no such feature.
Yes, it allows you to customise your alert/action sounds.... but their actual playing times are restricted. Some of the wave-files ive selected dont play in their entirety?!

Any ideas?

there is a limit when recording wav files as alert on Messenger. This feature is by design and cannot be changed. ^o)

We have forwarded your suggestion to the product team that carefully reviews these suggestions and considers them for future releases.
