Please note that the line Audacity... Development Team is very long, in bold and centered, the developer's names are much shorter, not in bold and centered -- this is enough visual distinction between the heading and the items. I think that was Vaughan's design decision. I can try it your way. Can ...

This has (we believe) been fixed since my last post about it in this thread, and the fix will be in the next Beta 1.3.10. See "Fixed since release" on our Known Issues page . The fix was tested on Vista and Windows 7, but if you want to test it before 1.3.10 Beta is released, please downl...

You could also try unmuting playback of the input instead of using software playthrough. I looked in the preferences and checked the user manual. I can't find this option. Can someone explain how to do this? Audacity doesn't provide this ability (called "hardware playthrough") except on M...

I think it was felt by some that if you were not recording against playback you would be very unlikely to want to restrict yourself to recording a region, so letting recording carry on past the region was more user-friendly in that the user did not have to deselect first. I think it's a questionabl...

I ran into this problem with 1.3.9 on windows 7 professional 64 bit build 7600 when I was trying to import the sound from a video file and had to add ffmpeg. It crashed both when trying to open the preferences from the menu and with ctrl-p. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, deleting the prefer...

Audacity will only record into the selection region and stop recording when it reaches the end of the selection if "Play other tracks while recording new one" is enabled in Preferences (also done by enabling "Overdub" in the Transport menu in 1.3.9). Ah yes, so it does - and tha...

Unless it were thought to be offensive to our sponsors at SourceForge...label them: SourceForge Audacity homepage: http://audacityteam.org/ Wiki Audacity homepage: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/index.php?title=Main_Page Not a bad idea in itseIf but has several reasons against it: * lack of space the...

Also I'm now moving this to the correct 1.3.x for Windows forum. 1.2 does not support export to AAC or other formats using FFmpeg.

You're right. That's totally bogus. The real values are Fair, OK, Good, Better, Best. Advanced encoders don't take an argument of Bitrate. The best you can do is get in the fuzzy ballpark. The encoders are highly front-loaded and you can't predict the output bitrate. The 256 ballpark for a stereo s...

... if someone does look in About Audacity, probably they should see a link to Wiki rather than suggesting they come straight to Forum. Unless it were thought to be offensive to our sponsors at SourceForge, why not add a link to the Audacity Wiki page right below that for the SourceForge page and l...
