wma files?

Post by jmdraft » Tue Mar 08, 2011 10:59 am

I would like to edit wma files with Audacity.
I did a Google search abut this and got the impression (perhaps mistakenly) that I could do this with Audacity 1.3.X (Beta).
So I uninstalled 1.2.X and downloaded 1.3.
I am still having problems. I tried Import and it didn’t work.
I got an error message about changing Preferences but I didn’t understand it.
If it is possible to edit wma files with 1.3, can someone tell me the procedure or refer me to a link (tutorial preferably) that will explain this procedure?

You need to add the FFmpeg library before you can import WMA. Please see http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 75#p132275 and post back in this topic if you have problems,
