gregjcase Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 It seems that any file over 15 minutes will not load into wave pad. I have tried numerous files of complete albums, and it will not load any. It says they are corrupt, or not a true layer mp3... is this a flaw. is there a way to fix it?

jerry4dos Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hi gregjcase: When I first tested WavePad, this is something that absolutely astounded me. I tested it on several different machines, including a Win95 box with 32MB of RAM. My jaw dropped when it installed and ran perfectly. I loaded a one-hour MP3, and it loaded -- very slowly -- but it loaded and I could manipulate the functions. If it turns out your MP3s really ARE corrupt, you may be able to repair them with this tool: http://www.drtag.de/en/description_mp3rt.htm Good luck.

jerry4dos Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 More on Large Files: I think I've found the point at which WavePad chokes. I had occasion to work on a two-hour file today. I couldn't "play" any sections where I placed the cursor beyond 1 hour 41 minutes into the program, unless I placed the cursor EARLIER than 1:41 and let it play through uninterrupted. Actual editing and applying effects anywhere seemed to be unaffected by this mystery "wall" -- it's just that I couldn't hear what I was editing. Win2K, Pentium 4@2GHz, 522MB RAM Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win2K, Pentium 4@2GHz, 522MB RAM Jerry <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have the same problem at 1 hour 41 minutes. If I leave it alone it will play, but if I move it around, it repeats. Is there any solution to this yet? I am breaking up a 7 hour file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Keyzor Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Maybe this has been covered, but what I'm going to do is break my file up into 1 hour and 30 minute intervals and go from there. If i cut into the middle of something, I'll just redo the section. Good Luck everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaron Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 haha - yea same thing happened to me - i miraculously stumbled upon this excellent program today and downloaded it to cut up a long mp3 file which is over 2 1/2 hours long and indeed i got up to 1 hr and 41 min and it keeps playing from the start but as someone said a couple of posts ago, if u just play it from before 1 hr 41 min then it plays as normal - even if I cut any amount of file from before it it still happens - ..........i just had a brain storm - i will try to cut the track before 1hr 41 min and then save it then re-open it - that may work - i will post results !!

The scale in the edit window is what we are talking about, that's if you mean the green sound wave diagram in the window that opens when you open any file.
