+2. Changes in version 1.3.11 Beta:
Bug fixes for:
* Imports and Exports:
- * Freeze importing audio files when Default View Mode set to
- Pitch (EAC)
- * Simultaneous On-Demand imports sorted incorrectly
- * WAV or AIFF files imported as noise if Preferences set to
- copy in the data at 24-bit quality
- * WMA exports corrupted if they contained metadata
- * Metadata Editor appeared before the Export window when
- exporting to any format
+ * Improved help for files that cannot be imported because the relevant
+ optional library is missing.
+ * Fix corrupt files exported through FFmpeg when tags are set.
+ * Prevent saving an new Audacity Project over an existing one, as this ruins
+ both projects.
+ * Bug when Exporting partial tracks causing too much audio to be exported
+ is fixed.
* Effects:
- * Crash or hang using Equalization on longer tracks
- * Reverse did not reverse clip boundaries
- * Nyquist:
- * Excessive memory consumption led to slow processing or
- crashes
- * Values appearing in Nyquist effects text boxes were not
- always the default or previously entered values
- * Errors running Nyquist effects in European locales where
- comma used as decimal separator
- * VST effects remained in Effect menu even when re-scanned and
- no longer available
- * Truncate Silence produced incorrect results if silences
- spanned a block boundary
+ * Allow effects which change the length of the audio they work on to also be
+ applied to selected label tracks, thus keeping them in sync.
+ * Fixed problems with using plug-ins that create labels on existing label
+ tracks.
+
+ * Audio Devices:
+ * Fixed bug causing recording to stop short when the record sample is not
+ supported by the sound device and libsamplerate is used for resampling.
+ * Fix crash when opening the preferences on a machine where there are no
+ available audio devices.
+ * Fixes for bugs associated with Timer Record.
+
+ * User Interface:
+ * Sizes of some dialogues adjusted to ensure they fit on the screen.
+ * Fix for supposedly "hidden" items appearing on screen with large
+ monitors.
+ * Various keyboard shortcut and translation fixes.
* Other bug fixes:
- * Spurious "not writable/disk full" errors when saving projects
- * Playing, rendering or exporting multiple tracks led to
- desynchronised playback or loss of audio data
- * Crash opening Preferences when no recording and/or playback
- devices enabled or connected
- * Preferences window: OK button did not respond to ENTER when
- a tab selected in left-hand panel
- * Mixer Board solo button handling
- * (Windows) After a period launching correctly, Audacity
- sometimes did not come up on top at launch
- * (Mac OS X) Correctly installed Help folder could not be found
- * (Mac OS X and Linux) Output slider could affect VU playback
- meter which then did not reflect actual waveform volume level
- * (Linux) Undoing or redoing a label edit could cause a crash
+ * Several timing-dependent crashes and minor incorrect behaviours have been
+ fixed
Changes and improvements:
-
- * Linked audio and label tracks disabled until a future Beta
- version so they can be bug fixed
- * Input volume slider will be disabled if it doesn't have proper
- control of system slider; use the system slider instead
- * Proper support for copying/pasting label-with-audio including
- label text; new Edit > Paste Text to New Label menu item to
- paste system clipboard
- * Contrast Tool now modeless, more intuitive handling of multiple
- project windows, various other minor improvements
-
+ * Better icon file for Windows - higher resolution and transparency
+ * Windows Installer now installs correctly over previous versions of
Audacity
