I have a long stereo recording that crashed at somepoint.
Every time I attempt a recovery I get "Error: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 2759"
I have opened the .autosave file in my text editor and the line reads:
<simplebloc</project>
Not knowing what that means I've messed with line and every time gotten:
Error: mismatched tag at line 2759
I have attempted :deleteing, adding a "k" to bloc, seperating the tags on different lines (error was at line 2760), and seperated the tags with another <.
HELP!! and thank you for your time.

Re: Recovery Error SOS!!
Sometimes you can delete the line and go with that, but in this case, isn't it just that the tag isn't closed?

Re: Recovery Error SOS!!
If there was only one block file in a wavetrack, it looks like the below (the required phrase is "simpleblockfile filename"):
If you still need help please attach the AUP file. Please see here for how to attach files: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 49&t=64936 .
