#filetypes) That should allow you to import MP3s that do not strictly comply with the MP3 standard.Ī downside of this workaround is that the MP3 will be imported as a 16-bit track, so after importing you should change the bit format to "32-bit float". One workaround (until the next release of Audacity is available), is to use the "file type" dropdown menu in the "Import Audio" dialog and select "FFmpeg compatible files" before selecting the MP3 file to import.
Unfortunately it was discovered after the release of 2.4.2 that there are a lot of MP3s that do not comply with the MP3 standard, and with error checking enabled Audacity rejects these files.įor the next Audacity release, error checking of MP3s has been toned down so that non-critical errors will again be ignored and MP3s will successfully load unless they are critically damaged. To fix this problem, Audacity's MP3 importer had its error checking enabled. There was previously a problem with Audacity incorrectly identifying some file types. Open the MP3 file in MediaInfo, press View > Text then copy and paste here what it says about the file.Steve answered this in a thread on the Linux board. Get the version without installer, because the installer may have malware or adware. If that does not help, download "MediaInfo" from. To do that, File > Import > Audio., then in the "Files of type:'' dropdown, choose "FFmpeg-compatible files", then select your file. However you can try FFmpeg to import the file. Have you imported MP3 files from this Skype recorder before? Which Skype recorder are you using exactly?Īudacity should import MP3 without LAME (that is only for writing MP3's) or FFmpeg. top right of the Audacity menus which shows what importers tried to import your file. The full text of the error message would be useful too, and the information from Help > Show Log. To do that, File > Import > Audio., then in the 'Files of type:'' dropdown, choose 'FFmpeg-compatible files', then select your file. What you did wrong was not giving us the information requested in the pink panel at the top of this page. Audacity should import MP3 without LAME (that is only for writing MP3's) or FFmpeg. I already installed LAME, and FFmpeg and set all preferences (read some threads on the forum and checked Audacity's FAQ for instructions) but it keeps showing me that it cant be opened.Īny ideas what else can I do, or what did I do wrong? :/
I try to open recorded skype call in audacity, but it keeps showing me that MP3 file can't be open.
