So using your equations (with regards to video, or anything for that matter) 12 minutes of video to become 4 minutes of video uses the following equation:- (12 - 4)/12 No, it's: ("original duration" - "target duration") / "target duration" so that's (12 - 4) / 4 = 8/4 ...

Which Linux distribution are you using? How did you install Audacity 1.2? (I'm not aware of any Linux distro shipping Audacity 1.2 :? ) Because Audacity is not a dedicated tagging program and supports so many different file types, it only has basic tagging functionality. Trying to fully support ever...

There is also an experimental plug-in for "append import" (importing files end-to-end). The plug-in is available from this topic: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=59528 Take care not to download one of the obsolete versions - the latest version is available in the fir...

You don't need to uninstall Audacity 1.2 before downloading Audacity 1.3.14, though it can help to avoid "file association" issues if you uninstall Audacity 1.2 before installing Audacity 1.3.14. If you're using Windows 2000, XP, Vista or Windows 7, go to this page: http://audacityteam.org...
