Audacity Forum

I did get the version of Lame that Steve mentioned. In fact, I already had it. It didn't work, so I downloaded, and tried 3.98 That didn't work either. I figured that wav, and FLAC were different, because they didn't seem to need an external codec. From what I can tell, Audacity works just fine, whi...

Also, I did get my copy of Lame from the site you posted.

FLAC export does work.

My PC is a Dell XPS 410, running Windows 7. I can't remember which audio converter was being used when I uninstalled Audacity. It was totally free, and I got it from an Audacity page. At the time that Audacity failed, I was trying to export an mp3 file, only because that operation is relatively basi...

I have tried everything, but Audacity (pick a version. I am running 2.0, but I've tried others, too), but whenever I try to export what I have recorded, in Audacity, the program fails.

The sample rate is 44,100HZ, which is the CD standard. The custom FFmpeg export worked just fine, but I was never asked for a format of any kind. When doing a Google search on lame encoders, I see multitudes. Staying away from anything unofficial, I see 2 different codecs. One is 3.99.3, and the oth...

Yes. It is a file I recorded with Audacity, then I tried to export it, so I could convert into a format other than wav.

Exporting a wav file does work, so it must something to do with the lame driver. What are the likely fixes? As I said earlier, it doesn't work in Audacity, or any other file conversion program (wav to mp3, for example).

I am trying to export the file into a simple mp3 file. The file name is KFBR Side 2, for King Biscuit Flour Hour - Side 2, of 3 total sides. It's an old vinyl recording that I recorded onto my hard drive using Audacity. I haven't tried exporting anything else yet. Is my naming convention causing thi...
