Workflow for wav files in film editing
I was just wondering if anyone has designed a macro or if Audacity designers have plans to create one where you can import a compressed wav file split it and export the file to a folder. This would be a most have bit of software for film and video editors. It could save days of work after a film shoot..

Re: Workflow for wav files in film editing
Are you talking about Broadcast WAV? They won't open up in Audacity now, will they? Have you tried to install FFMpeg? That's the go-to software package that allows Audacity to open up "foreign" file formats.

Yes, and without FFmpeg. But Audacity won't see the BEXT or other chunks or cues and will discard them on export.kozikowski wrote:Are you talking about Broadcast WAV? They won't open up in Audacity now, will they?
