Streaming audio
I have version 1.3 of audacity and my my OS is windows 7. I have downloaded the lame encoder. When I record songs that are already on my computer it does fine, but when I try to record streaming audio such as You Tube it won't record the song. What am I doing wrong?
Re: Streaming audio
You need to select "stereo mix" (name can be different in some systems) as the recording device. Not all computers running Windows 7 or Visa have that option available...
