When exporting to WAV, I lose all metadata. Some metadata fields are included in the exported file, but few applications read WAV metadata, and iTunes is one that does not. You can export to AIFF instead then iTunes will see the tags. Please see http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/WAV#Metadata . You ...

You want to both import the entire audio from the entire video file into Audacity, and you want to record the audio of the video as it plays on the computer, or only one of those? If you have installed FFmpeg as per these instructions and still need to locate FFmpeg in Audacity, this explains how to...

Are you talking only about ripping an entire CD as one file, or also about burning a CD with no skips between tracks? Steve was talking about exporting a WAV (or WAV files) then using the WAV file(s) to burn a CD (instead of burning the CD from MP3 files). If you want to rip the entire CD as one WAV...

I am looking for a message or a software command or something alike with which I can write C++ code (Windows) to switch between the Waveform and Spectogram display like when you use the mouse to hit those menu entries in the Trackinfo screen of the GuiStereoTrack.

Is it the problem you had last year with a cassette player http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?p=172383#p172383 ? If so are you connecting the cassette player to the blue line-in port of the computer as requi...

What exactly happens? Are files or folders disappearing from the window? Have you tried right-click over audacity.exe > Properties then seeing what the Compatibility Mode setting is? Do you have window management programs installed that could be responsible? You can use CamStudio to make a video: ht...

There is Scripting but you have to compile Audacity to do that.

You could create an AutoHotkey script or executable to open the file then use the Audacity shortcuts to split the stereo track and solo/play then execute that script as a scheduled task: http://www.autohotkey.com/ .

You don't as far as I know have to disable dynamic loading to link Audacity properly to FFmpeg. What are the default configure flags for ffmpeg on your build that works? --disable-ffplay --disable-ffprobe --disable-ffserver --disable-avdevice --disable-debug --disable-decoder=amrnb --disable-decoder...
