problems converting aup to mp3 with audacity-portable 1.3.14 Unicode

Submitted by alico0 on May 23, 2012 - 5:56am

Hi all. My problem is I have multiple tracks of audio recordings of original Audacity portable. Some could export them as MP3 playback and other 8 continued (all tracks (28) belong to the same project) to be exported as MP3 playing but no sound, only noise, take up space (they are recorded, you see the graph) . That may be happening? the defective copy and save as new project, but is the same. The format is escuhan audacity perfectly, but other programs will. Thanks for what you can help me. salutations

Submitted by farat_as on May 18, 2012 - 12:01pm

Hi,

I use 4-5 beta apps with portableApps platform which all of them works great (at least until now). PortableApps platform updates the stable apps as you know. But I check also everytimes from this site by searching my Beta apps too.

Please make auto update also for beta apps please...

Thank you!

EXTERNAL EXCEPTION C0000006

Submitted by crookadile on May 17, 2012 - 10:36am

HI,
I used my portable apps today and when I went to eject the stick I get a message box popping up saying " External Exception C000006 "

I only have to hover my mouse pointer over the menu and I get the message.
I cant run any programs or do anything with the menu.
It looks like I will have to shut down my laptop so that I can take out the stick.

Anybody know why this is suddenly happening.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT :- I managed to eject by shutting down the menu in task manager.

Thoughts on dropping Frets on Fire

Just wondering if there are any opinions on dropping Frets on Fire from our list of supported apps. It's long since abandoned (2008) and doesn't work on Windows 7. There is a mod called FoFix which does work on Windows 7, but it's near-impossible to use without reading quite a bit first and it, too, is abandoned as a 4.0 Alpha 1 (2010). Thoughts? Anybody still use it?

Encryption for menu or individual apps.

idea: Encrypting portable apps menu or individual apps for security and protection.

The other day i was thinking what would happen if i lost my portableapps flash drive. all my accounts and user settings would be open for anyone to use.

my ideas are to have.

  1. password protection: option to setup password protection in the settings, with encryption for extra extra protection.
  2. first boot login: nice window prompting to put password to unlock menu or protected apps for that session.
