I see that same track got replaced with racetrack and 4 mics got replaced with 4 kids. Lol

Re: BBC Meters

Oh, and can you make the meters come to rest full up when you power Audacity off? :roll: That bit's a joke, yes? I think meters are an example of a feature that would benefit greatly from "modular plug-in" design. Unfortunately, there has been no development of the "modules" API...

Re: unmatching song length and original track playing

is it a problem with iTunes and not with Audacity? Probably (I can't think what else it might be). I don't use iTunes myself, but there's a couple of bits in the Audacity manual that may help: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tutorial_how_to_import_files_from_itunes.html http://manual.audacitytea...

Re: Wont upload whole audio file

How do you know that the file is 55 minutes long and not 29 minutes long?
Does the 29 minutes that imports, play correctly?
Where did this file come from?
Are you importing it from an external drive?

Re: Audacity did not recognize the type of file

Voice recorders are notorious for using weird formats.
Have you installed FFmpeg? If not, you could try installing FFmpeg (instructions here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_ ... tml#ffdown) and if you are very lucky, that may enable Audacity to import the file.

Re: Size column entries in History are on the wrong lines

I agree it is confusing, but it is by design (and I was out voted). The "size" numbers represent the amount of disk space that will be recovered when using "discard levels", not the amount of space that was used when doing the listed command (so not the amount of space that will ...
