Cannot export using lame

Post by eoarwyn » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:54 am

Hi! I downloaded audacity for an old Windows ME PC, and I also installed lame. But whenever I export mp3, it says "Cannot open mp3 encoding library!" even though I locate the lame file when it asks me to. :cry: So I can't save my work as mp3. Can anyone help me? Thank you. :)

Please follow the instructions here:

If there are still problems, try rebooting the computer, or try these alternative downloads:

* lame_enc.dll 3.98.4 from:
http://forum.audacityteam.org/download/file.php?id=2998

* "libmp3lame-win-3.98.2.zip" from http://lame.buanzo.com.ar/

* lame_enc.dll (3.98.2) without manifest:
