Re: Audacity 2.0.4 doesn't launch on XP

Also, could you try:
1) Reboot the computer.
2) Open audacity.cfg in a text editor and replace the contents with this:

Code: Select all

NewPrefsInitialized=1
[AudioIO]
Host=MME

Then try an launch Audacity.

Re: 2.0.4 - Changing sound card settings

After installation of 2.0.4 over 2.0.3, Audacity changed the input source for my SoundBlaster PCI soundcard This is on WinXP SP3. The SoundBlaster PCI soundcard is using WDM drivers.

Re: Failed to import mp4 through FFMPEG

It looks as if the build of FFmpeg on your SolydK machine does not support m4a. Some distributions do not include support for restricted formats by default. You may need to enable an additional repository to get software that supports restricted format, and then re-install FFmpeg, or you may need to...
