Re: Possibly corrupted MP3 won't play properly in Audacity

LAME is for writing MP3's - Audacity already comes with an MP3 decoder that can read MP3. Try installing FFmpeg ( http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/faq_installation_and_plug_ins.html#ffdown ). Then File > Import > Audio... , choose "FFmpeg-compatible files" in "Files of type",...
