Use of [FileWriteN] in conjunction with the file "audacity.cfg"

tapsklaps - January 22, 2012 - 6:31am

In the file "AudacityPortable.ini" I've discovered, that in the sections [FileWrite1] - [FileWrite5] at the entry "File" a path with the file "audacity.cfg" was used. But due to the used Typ "INI" is this code invalid. Accordingly, the sections [FileWrite1] - [FileWrite5] have no effect.

FFmpeg library 0.6.2 for Audacity 1.3.13 or later

tapsklaps - August 7, 2011 - 3:16am

After downloading the zip version of FFmpeg 0.6.2, the content should be extracted to a folder called FFmpeg. This folder can be replaced with the folder FFmpeg, which already exists in X:\PortableApps\AudacityPortable\App. To note however is, that this exchange only should be performed for Audacity 1.3.13 or later.

Isolating/removing Guitar.

DADSGETNDOWN - July 2, 2011 - 9:26pm

Is there a way to isolate just the Guitar or pluck it out ?
Or is the a different program anyone suggests ?
I have seen it done but not sure how, I read the tuts and things at audacity and wiki, but not a lot there.
You can hear examples of isolated guitar or vocals or whatever you want at youtube.

LAME/FFmpeg deleted on upgrade

So apparently installing a newer version of Audacity Portable (or reinstalling the existing version) wipes the LAME and FFmpeg libraries in the /App folder.

How LAME. (Sorry)

In a future release, it would be great to have these directories either excluded from the "delete old version" routine in the installer or have the portable app read them from the /Data directory instead so they aren't wiped on upgrade.

Malicious advertising on your home page

windinthew - November 8, 2010 - 5:43am

Hello

Would you be able to remove CDEarth.com from the Google ad on the AudacityPortable home page? These people tie unsuspecting users into recurring "subscriptions" to Audacity. The Audacity Team filtered them out years ago.

HI!
(Audacity Portable 1.3.12 rev 2/ PA on USB hard drive.)
At startup Audacity receives error messages:
Failed to convert file "M:\PortableApps Suite™\PortableApps\AudacityPortable\App\Audacity\Portable Settings\audacity.cfg" to Unicode.
can't open user configuration file 'M:\PortableApps Suite™\PortableApps\AudacityPortable\App\Audacity\Portable Settings\audacity.cfg'.
The program does not remember preferences and settings (language, folders, location of LAME and ffmpeg).Reinstalling and change directories did not help.

PA Went back in versions ?

DADSGETNDOWN - July 2, 2010 - 8:43pm

Hello, I read in the newsletter that we switched back to some earlier version.
Not exactly sure why... ? But more importantly, I have used 1.2.6 for a long time, Never have ANY problems with the functions and things I use it for, I record my old cassettes, We use it to cut portions or songs and or reply them over and over to learn with instruments, We make Mp3's and all this stuff. What would I lose and gain if I move up to 1.3.11 ? I think it is. I remember not upgrading from 1.2.6 for a specific reason but dang if I can recall what it is or was...Maybe you know ?.

[Fixed] Audacity Portable 1.3.12 Issues

temp4746 - June 19, 2010 - 4:21am
  1. Broken language switching: It doesn't seem to work at all and keeps setting Audacity to System Default language which is very annoying.
  2. No instuctions for installing FFMPEG on the Audacity Portable Download page
  3. Maybe making plugin installers for FFMPEG and Lame will help with this.

BTW my PortableApps.com platform version is 2.0 Beta 4.
