Hello!

I saved a project in 1.3.2 beta. When I tried to open it i got Error on line 5 "not well formed". This was realy a disaster since the files where from the municiallity meeting in our town and I should publish then in mp3 fromat on the web as fast as posible. I checked the .aup file in an editor and saw that there was a "å" and a "ä" in the file names (but not on line 5). I changed the letters to "a" and the project worked ) So if you have the same problem check for swedish letters and change them.

Sample cod:
<tags title="08" artist="Kommunfullmäktige i Kristianstad" album="April 2009" track="10" year="2009" genre="28" comments="" id3v2="1"/>
<labeltrack name="Etikettspår" numlabels="20">
Changed to:
<tags title="08" artist="Kommunfullmaktige i Kristianstad" album="April 2009" track="10" year="2009" genre="28" comments="" id3v2="1"/>
<labeltrack name="Etikettspar" numlabels="20">

Error characters, not just Swedish ones. And it was on line 5. The AUP file doesn't pay any attention to line length, so if you display the code on a narrow monitor, the longer lines will fold over and look like new lines. They're not.

Here's a simple screen capture to illustrate.

Line 2 would almost certainly have folded over to look like line 3 and maybe line 4 to you.

The current Audacity Beta version is 1.3.7. We do not support obsolete versions. Please upgrade:

Unless you are actually on Windows 98 or ME, use the version for Windows 2000 or later which is Unicode so can handle extended ASCII and Unicode characters.
