Importing ASF files and Windows Media Server

[zoomiest]

BACKGROUND:
About a year and a half ago... 2 years, maybe, I would record an internet streamed radio station program (BYU Radio) with iRadio. Because it was streamed with Microsoft Media Server, I could only save it to big, long .asf files, and it wouldn't break the whole recorded file into songs. I would then, use Audacity or WavePad to copy the wave forms for each song, and save them as MP3 files. It worked great (however, time consuming).

NOW:
Now, I come back to do it some more, and when I open .asf files, recorded the same way, the wave forms are all munched together - and when I try to just play them, a 60 minute file plays in about 2 seconds (and you know how that sounds!). I get the same results when I open the recorded .asf file in Audacity or WavePad.

Is there some setting that the internet radio station (Windows Media Server) could have used to prevent stream ripping?
Is there a setting within Audacity to salvage this scenario? I would just like to pick up where I left off.
What else would have changed? What else should I look for?

Much appreciated!

2 years ago there was no version of Audacity that could support ASF files.
Support for FFMpeg was introduced last year which may enable Audacity to import .ASF files.

You may be able to import ASF files into Audacity 1.3.11 but you will need to install FFMpeg (see here: http://manual.audacityteam.org/index.ph ... tallffmpeg
Audacity 1.2.x does not support ASF files.

Steve!

It worked GREAT! I had to up grade to the latest beta, but the ffmpeg installed quickly and easily, and I am operating again!
Thank you so much! (a guy's music is important!) Thanks for the guidance on this matter.
