Re: cassette is to loud

When I try to record a cassette it is to loud. Even with input at "0." I connect my cassette player to the newmark turntable I use. It reords but is to loud. Grey Try connecting from headphones out of the tape deck, then turn its volume control knob down. If the Audacity input slider does...

Re: Cant Locate FFmpeg?

The .cfg file should have the "Enabled" line at the top as in the syntax I gave, so: [FFmpeg] Enabled=1 FFmpegLibPath=C:UsersMakisPortablesAudacityPortableAppFFMpegavformat-52.dll not: [FFmpeg] FFmpegLibPath=C:UsersMakisPortablesAudacityPortableAppFFMpegavformat-52.dll Enabled=0 Please exi...

Can a couple of Mac people open these Windows projects?

Recently there was a problem where a project I created in 1.3.13 on Windows with a Unicode character in the file name opened with orphaned blockfiles on Mac, and then deleting the orphans silenced all the audio in the project.

Re: Cant Locate FFmpeg?

Thanks for the output. If you change the FFmpegLibPath in audacity.cfg I would expect a message that the configuration was changed, because Audacity cannot detect FFmpeg automatically. If your FFmpegLibPath in .cfg is correct, go to the Libraries preferences and click "Locate". If there is...

Re: Slight lag in OSX

My point about the refresh rate was really that if it was set to something that the monitor doesn't support properly, odd behaviour could easily follow. How about Garage Band - you can import audio files on that. Or how about Macsome (free and I presume lightweight as it only works with AAC and MP3)...

MP3 Year tag

On Ubuntu, the year tag in MP3s exported from Audacity is not seen in applications like Rhythmbox or MoviePlayer. This is easily fixable by using ID3_FRAME_YEAR in line 1868 of ExportMP3.cpp instead of the deprecated "TYER" frame which we use for backwards compatibility with Windows applic...
