Which type of music can the Versa play?

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Hi,

 

I'm wondering if anyone knows which type of MP4 AAC files the Versa can play? Most AAC files, like the default files created in iTunes, are AAC Low Complexity. I assume the Versa can play these files? But what about High Efficiency AAC files? Can the Versa play these?

 

I've uploaded AAC-LC and AAC-HE versions of the same public domain music here:

It would be great if someone could try to upload both files to their Versa to see which ones work. I am assuming the AAC-LC will work fine.But I am unsure of the AAC-HE file.

 

Note: This music is from the YouTube public domain music library:

It's great to see you around @ShowsOn.

 

Regarding your inquiry, the music and podcast file types you can download to your watch depend on whether you use a PC or a Mac. Note that some older songs may not transfer due to copyright protections (known as DRM encryption).

PC:

  • MP3 files
  • MP4 files with AAC audio
  • WMA files

Mac: 

  • MP3 files
  • MP4 files with AAC audio

 

For more information you can check the help article How do I listen to music and podcasts on my Fitbit watch?.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your reply. I use a Windows 10 PC.

 

I can see the manual says it can play MP4 AAC. But what type of AAC? I assume AAC LC works, but what about AAC HE?


I've created AAC HE and AAC LC files and uploaded them here:

https://we.tl/t-VM6N35dk9c

 

It would be great if you could try to transfer both to your Versa to see which of the files the Versa can play.

 

Thanks.
