Without trying (too hard) to assign blame, here is what I think is going on... wxWidgets expects to find a file "setup.h" during compile of wxWidgets. This file is not "supplied" by wxWidgets but must be created by the person doing the compiling. wxWidgets provides an example fil...

Each one opened up until #include "wx/setup.h" which did not open. That's crap, there's a big long error message and I can't copy it. The error begins: File 'wx/setup.h' not found in current source file's directory or in build system paths. So I copied setup.h to C:wxWidgets-2.8.12include...

I'm just about out the door to rehear...

Having you able to compile for Mac would be a huge step forward!

Currently Audacity will not build with any wxWidgets release beyond the 2.8 series; wx29 has many bug fixes which might benefit Audacity but the Audacity code needs some massaging to make it wx29+ compliant. The included patch is stale and will need to be applied manually, it was current as of when ...

Thanks Koz, I have asked before with no response...hope springs eternal!

I occasionally supply code to the Audacity Team; a dozen or more of my patches have been used. Since Audacity has been in a "feature freeze" mode all my accepted patches have been bug-fix related. I can compile and test on Windows and have access to some folks who compile and test on Linux...

If this has not resolved yet it might help us to know a lot more details. First, exactly what do you mean by "skipping" every 10 seconds? Do you get brief periods of silence where there should be sound or bits of missing sound with no silence--like words dropped out? When do you notice the...
