to convert this into wave format WAV

ofmppg command which will convert this
0:34
into waveform pcm waveform so just we
0:37
will write this command ffmppg- i and
0:40
then we'll be providing the input file
0:42
here which will be
0:43
inputmpp3 after that we apply the audio
0:47
codec so we simply write here -8 a codec

1:47
of the wave files is little bit larger
1:49
as compared to the MP3 files if you see
1:52
the size right here which is 2.83 but
1:56
