when the recording starts, the window "Audacity Timer Record Progress" is displayed. This window shows the elapsed time and the remaining time, both as text plus graphics. In fact both times are almost never updated. They are refreshed from time to time, but in a manner which seems to be neither pe...

It would be most useful if you could build from latest SVN . SVN for me on Ubuntu 10.04 (built against widgets 2.8.10) doesn't have recording freezes even if a screensaver is used, and even if I use Timer Record. Gale Ok, I'll try to compile from SVN. I just had a look at build from latest SVN but ...

I made a 2 hours recording this morning. The screen saver was disabled. The screen was configured to sleep after 30 minutes. The recording did not freeze at all during the whole recording session. So, I consider this problem is resolved, at least as far as I am concerned... Indeed, before using aud...

Yup, this is a known bug amd is on the bug-list, but it is proving somewhat elsive for the developers to track down as it is not easily repeatable. I have experienced it with various releases of 1.3 and with the current Beta it has happened to me twice now. It was thought at one time that it only h...

[...] phabaudac, what is your "host" and "recording device" in the Audacity Devices Preferences? Try changing Transport > Software Playthrough from whatever state it's in now. If you turn it on, it might stop the screensaver coming on. Or if you turn it off it might stop the freeze when the screens...

I've tried Timer Record (with "software playthrough" off) in Audacity SVN. I tried on Windows 7 (with the Screen Saver) and Ubuntu 10.04 (with the Screen Saver only and "putting the screen to sleep" only). I set a 5 minute wait to start a half hour recording then had the screensaver or sleep featur...

I would call it a bug, but it's not really an Audacity bug. The problem is that often the sound system can try to shut down when the screen saver starts. You may be able to work round the issue by setting your screen to just go off rather than a screen saver, though of course you must make sure tha...

Hello,

On Ubuntu 10.04, recording with Audacity 1.3.12 beta freezes as soon as the screen saver gets on. Is this a known bug ? Is there any workaround other than disabling the screen saver ?

Je vais essayer de reformuler en anglais le problème constaté et je le posterai sur le forum indiqué. Si j'obtiens une réponse, voire une solution, je reviendrai en faire part ici. La réponse a été rapide ( http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=30701 ) : il s'agit d'un bug connu. Le ph...
