Please Help, Error: not well-formed (invalid token)

Post by bla86 » Tue Jul 10, 2012 2:16 pm

I've spend the last two hours recording some passages for work using Audacity, and I did not save the recordings as an MP3 format or WAVE Format (I use Windows). Now when I try to open the Audio files I get this error!:
Error :not well-formed (invalid token) at line 3
What should I do? I can't get the file to open! I can't record the whole thing again! please help me!
I've searched the forums and saw some similar topics but didn't found a solution, attached the aup files
their names are in Hebrew but I've changed that and nothing happened ):
Recorded on 2.0.0 Ansi if i'm not mistaken, windows xp
Thank You!

The problem is with using ANSI for non-ANSI characters.
For Windows XP you should be using the Unicode build, especially for extended character sets such as Hebrew.

I'll have a look at your attachments and see if I can fix it up for you (no promises). For future work, use the standard Unicode build (you can get it here: http://audacityteam.org/download/windows )

Try these files.
You will need to put them in the same folder as the _data folders, and change the names of the data folders to: 17_data and 19_data respectively.

Hey Steve, thanks a lot!
Now there's a warning - missing audio data. What do I do?

Sorry for the duplicated post, I accidentally clicked on the 'Submit' button twice :)

Do you have the .AUP file and the _data folder in the same directory?

Have you renamed the _data folders to 17_data and 19_data respectively?

It's only on the 19 file, the 17 is ok.
When I click on show log for details there are lots of lines saying 'Warning: Missing data block file'

Does it say how many block files are missing?
