A possible warning to users of Audacity
Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 10:24 am
I'm developing a sample library. Last night Audacity corrupted 2 hours of recording and editing. Here's what happened:
1. Start Audacity.
2. Record a couple of seconds.
3. Save the project.
4. Close the project/exit Audacity.
5. Start Audacity.
6. Open the previously saved project.
7. Getting this:
Oh, and get this, the recommended option in the dialog is to delete the block files, a.k.a in my case as every audio block in the project.
BTW, I'm using Audacity 1.3.4-beta (says the "About"-dialog) on Gentoo (where the package is named 'audacity-1.3.4-r1').
I've also posted about it in the Audacity forum.
Weird stuff...
