Re: Audio project does not burn on CD-R

To make an audio CD, you first need to "Export" the audio (File menu) in WAV format.
After that, it's down to your CD burning software.

Re: How to match bit rate of original file for game?

Idea 1: Perhaps we could provide a bit more information about the "standard" formats, particularly about those that don't have options. For example: format info.png Idea 2: Perhaps "standard" WAV export could have an option for sample rate - default: Same as project. If we also ...

Re: Keyboard can't enter info when editing metadata....

Please state which version of OS X you are using, the exact three-section version of Audacity from Audacity > About Audacity and whether you obtained the .dmg installer or the zip.

The file from the "Download" link is a "ZIP" file.
The file from the "View" link is plain text file with a ".NY" file extension.

Re: Extra audio out for VIDEO sync with xjadeo

Jack Transport sounds like the best option. It does not require any of that messing with extra TC tracks, and it is much more accurate than SMPTE or MTC. SMPTE can still be useful / required for syncing hardware, but for software based audio / video editing, Jack Transport becomes the SMPTE for the ...

Re: Saving files in place

Steve, yes, I am also old enough to still have nightmares of bouncing tape-to-tape. :) This page is also good bedtime reading: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/audacity_projects.html Overwriting files is potentially dangerous, and the current handling works pretty reliably. I'm not saying that ...

Re: Trim Silence

Sticking my oar in, "Silence to leave at start (s)" and "Silence to leave at end (s)". As we now have a larger interface, and your suggested shorter wording, I think it looks OK to make the range explicit: "Silence to leave at start (0 to 30 seconds):" "Silence to...

Re: How to match bit rate of original file for game?

Technically I think they could be so described, Yes, "technically" they are "uncompressed" and "lossless" formats (but they are also "low quality" formats). If you have a u-Law or A-law file, it can be imported into Audacity and re-exported to create an exact...
