What is 3G2 file?
The 3G2 file extension is a video container format developed by the 3GPP2 (3rd Generation Partnership Project 2) for use in mobile phones, and 3GP2 files can be played on any Windows, Mac or Linux computers. 3G2 files are based on the older 3GP file, and uses different codecs such as H.263, H.264, MPEG-4, and AAC for compressing audio and video data. These files have 4CC codes such as 35907BE6, 32674855 and 33134961 and may employ encryption for secure transfer of content. [ ⏩ ] 3G2 file extension
What is CDA file?
The .cda extension is associated with CD Audio tracks. This type of file provides index-based access to the audio data contained on an audio CD, which is encoded in the Compact Disc Digital Audio (CDDA) format. CDDA is a digital audio storage format that was designed specifically for the audio compact disc medium. It was developed in 1982 and is based on the Red Book audio recording standard.

How to convert the file from 3G2 to CDA?
To successfully convert the 3G2 file to CDA, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.3G2). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case CDA (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than CDA).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. 3G2 to CDA. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting 3G2 files to CDA files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension CDA, while before this step we had the 3G2 file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new CDA file, or not.
