Re: Recording streaming audio

Possibly if that is the American equivalent of a fast in-swinging yorker.
When I tried to install the driver initially, I got a message saying that my system could not detect any Creative hardware. I think possibly because it is an old pice of hardware.

Re: Recording streaming audio

Cracked it at last. I have finally been able to install the latest driver for my sound card (I had to search out a method of doing it indireectly) but Audacity v.1.3.11 is now working as it should.

Re: Recording streaming audio

Many thanks for your suggestions and help. I can meet my recording needs with v.1.2.6 and (if necessary) import into v.1.3.11 for editing and processing. Your comments about the role of the computer do not explain fully why there is no problem with the older (v.1.2.x) versions of Audacity. Presumabl...

Re: Recording streaming audio

I downloaded v.1.3.7 and had no more success with that than with v.1.3.11.

Re: Recording streaming audio

Creative PCI Audio Mixer does not offer the option to set recording source as "What U Hear". Only volume changes, muting and balance.
Default record and playback device set as recommended.
Other suggestions (many of which I had tried previously) have no effect.

Re: Recording streaming audio

Hi again. I have been otherwise engaged for a while so have not had so much time to devote to Audacity. Even so, the problem remains. If I record from a source (stereo mix or line in) using v.1.2.6, the recording time scale exactly matches the real time elapsed and the resulting playback is at the s...

Re: Recording streaming audio

"Typically, Audacity does what you describe if it's trying to play a compressed music file it doesn't understand. "My three minute music file plays in fifteen seconds and sounds like chipmunks." I don't know why a capture performed in Audacity would do that..." As far as I can se...

Re: Recording streaming audio

I opened up v.1.3.7 with a recording (WAV format) that I made yesterday using v.1.2.6 and it plays perfectly well at the correct speed without having to make any adjustment.
