Re: FFmpeg plugin fails [Solved]

Compiling FFmpeg or compiling Audacity should do the trick, but until I try it I'm not sure which version you should use. I think what you need to do is either compile an earlier version of FFmpeg, or build Audacity with the changes outlined here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=FAQ:I...

Re: Loop Play from within selection. (SHIFT+B)

Merry Oktoberfest to you too Edgar. Unfortunately I'm getting some really strange results, but before that I'm just wondering why you decided to use labels as the loop region rather than the current selection. Is there a technical reason for that? If not, then I think it would be easier from a user ...

Re: Cables

We were unable to find an on-line manual for the Suzuki Digital Piano (R-21) so we are relying on you to tell us what sort of sockets it has. I presume that you have the user manual? Have a look in the "Specification" section (usually near the back of the manual) and it should list the ava...

Re: FFmpeg plugin fails [Solved]

My guess is that Ubuntu has not patched their build of Audacity to work with their current build of FFmpeg. You could report this as a bug to Ubuntu (check first that they do not already have it listed as a bug), and/or build a compatible version of FFmpeg and/or Audacity from the source code. Which...

Re: Alesis Multimix USB multichannel inputs

Most multi-channel devices that allow simultaneous multi-channel recording will mention this as a feature. Many multi-channel devices that only allow mono/stereo recording will "fudge over" the issue. If it does not explicitly say that the device can do multi-channel (simultaneous) recordi...

Re: Writing Cue Sheets to CD

I did not like this because ... It makes more sense in context; "I have always heard that the cue sheet did get written to the CD..." "No, the cue sheet tells the CD burning software how to arrange the CD tracks....." We've probably done this subject to death now and the origina...

Re: Audacity-Nyquist wish list

Following an off-forum discussion with Edgar: The Audacity "Amplify..." effect calculates the peak value on-the-fly I see no reason why this cannot be done from within the Nyquist .c source code someplace right at the beginning of the initialization of the process and stored in some global...

Re: Weird chirping sounds and problems selcting points on tr

I can fix the second point. Look near the bottom of the Audacity window and there's a tick box that says "Snap to". De-select that option (no tick in the box). Regarding the chirping sound - unless someone else jumps in with an inspired answer I think you may need to provide a few more clu...

Re: FFmpeg plugin fails [Solved]

Are you using Audacity and FFmpeg installed from the Ubuntu repositories (installed with Synaptic/apt/Add Programs) or have you built either of them from their source code?
