Audacity Forum

I am a newcomer to Audacity and I am finding the user manual difficult to follow due to limited computer knowledge. I have successfully created an Audacity audio file which I now want to burn to a new blank audio DVD. I have noticed a "padlock" symbol next to the Audacity icon for the fil...

The method of import should not matter as long as FFmpeg is installed because only FFmpeg will extract the audio. THEN WHAT HAPPENS?? The audio only should import with blue waves, just like if you import an MP3 or WAV audio file. Is the VOB file now on a DVD or on your hard drive? Audacity should b...

Here's a screen capture after I reproduced the error. It only happens when attempting to recover more than one project after a crash. Reproduced by having four open projects and force quitting the program. Thanks for the post. I have just recovered four unsaved projects fine. There were three harml...

A bug has been opened at http://bugzilla.audacityteam.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627 for problems when explicitly using Equalization in "Graphic EQ" mode (as opposed to "Draw Curves" mode). + EQ curves are corrupted after switching from Graphic mode to Draw Curves then back to Graphic, ...

I merged the two topics so we can see what we are talking about. The VOB files will not be copy protected as it was a home recorded DVD. The method of import should not matter as long as FFmpeg is installed because only FFmpeg will extract the audio. What exactly happens when you import the VOB into...

Use some other software for your server that supports WAV.

The only "possible" solution I know is here:

When you import the file, do File > Import > Audio... and make sure you choose "FFmpeg-compatible files" before importing the file. What does the waveform look like - is it a flat line or almost so? Is the file the correct length? If the file is the correct length, you could try clicking i...

Steve, Your bug fix for EqPower crossfade=off is fine with me. I would guess "paste inside and at the end of the selection" is a bit obscure, unless you can think of a good use when looping. I thought about names with "Paste Special" combinations but I don't think there are enoug...
