Then switched to uBlockOrigin, but I double checked and it doesn't indicate to block anything. I use uBlockOrigin, so I don't think that's the problem. Check that javascript is enabled in "about:config" (see: https://www.technipages.com/firefox-enable-disable-javascript) The default javas...

Which version of Audacity are you using? I see from one of your other forum topics that you have Audacity 2.3.0. I'd forgotten, but in Audacity 2.3.0 there was a problem with the formatting of the data from the command (aud-get-info "Labels") . This problem has been resolved in Audacity 2...
