What do i need to turn my old GBA SP into a MP3 player?
I already have M3 and miniSD card. I believe i need an emulator, but is there any that don't need to convert my mp3's into another format?
I'm not sure if the GBA SP is powerful enough to decode MP3 files and play them, A quick search for a music player resulted in a SPC player, but thats not all that great.
Guess for now your stuck with the M3 music playback system (unless someone knows of an MP3 player for the GBA)
Quote: 7. How to Play movies and music with M3 Adapter? Which kinds of movies and music format can be played?
It is very simple to play movies and music. You only download movies or music files that will be playing in CF/SD Card, and insert M3 Adapter together with CF/SD Card into GBA / NDS, then switch it on. Select Media Player Icon and click "A" button to confirm, than select Movie / Music Icon after GBA Movie Player interface appears.
The format can be played on GBA / NDS is the special GBM and GBS format. Abundant movies and music have already provided for everybody to download at present. You can't play some general formats directly on a GBA / NDS, but the format can be played on GBA / NDS when being converted into GBM and GBS format by the conversion software that we offered.
File format that the our software supports at present:
Dobly AC3 audio frequency file (*. AC3)
target's file of DVD video (*. VOB)
wave form sound file of Microsoft (*. WAV)
MPEG-1 Audio Layer-2 file (*. MP2)
MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3 file (*. MP3)
Real media file (*. RA, *. RM, *. RAM, *. RMVB)
MPEG-1 media file (*. Mpeg, *. Mpg)
MPEG-2 media file (*. M2V)
Windows media file (*. AVI, *. ASF, *. WMA, *. WMV)
VCD video file (*. DAT)
QuickTime media file (*. MOV)
MPEG-4 media file (*. AVI)
DivX media file (*. AVI)
Well, according to the official M3 website FAQ, you should be able to use your M3 to play MP3 files.
Also, it'd probably just be cheaper and a better idea to just get a cheap MP3 player. There are quite a few budget MP3 players with acceptable playback nowadays, so it'd probably be worth it.

The M3 requires that you convert the MP3 file for it to work, kinda false advertising ¬_¬
