I was looking forward to the new version, unfortunately, it seems to have some bugs related to playing DSS files. While I could do this with no problem with the old version (4.3), now every time I try to load them the program crashes. I have to convert them with the Philips 9350 software first rather than just load them like I did before. No, they are not recorded on LP, everything is the same as it was, and I downloaded the DSS converter. I have tried this on two computers and it crashes every time and, in fact, even when I try to restart Express Scribe after doing this, it crashes. I somehow have to delete the file it tried to load before it will stop crashing. It is very frustrating. It doesn't make sense either because it worked fine before. I luckily was able to find Express Scribe 4.1 on Download.com and now no problem at all. ??? Hopefully this can be fixed because I like the idea of being able to speed up or slow down with better quality. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
