Hello - I want to record with Audacity from Mini discs. I can connect the MD player (small one with ear phone out) but do not hear the music and recording is not possible. What to do?

... I want to record with Audacity from Mini discs.

What to do?

The connection should be from earphone-out (or line-out) on the mini-disc, to line-in* on the computer.
Then select line-in as the recording device in Audacity.

[* If your computer does not have a line-in socket,
devices are available for ~$30US which convert a USB socket into a line-in socket].

The Behringer UCA-202 is a handy, convenient, good quality way to add stereo in and out and headphone connection to a computer.
