Just to clarify: When you said "you may have exceeded it's capacity" what do you mean? Do you mean there may be a limit on how much the program can be used since installation? Or do you mean that I may have tried to load a WMA file that was too big?

The NCH products I have handle WMA files but sometimes have trouble with WMA. In the case described below two WMA files were OK for Windows Media Player and the Olympus DSS Player but would not load completely in the NCH applications: WavePad and Switch Sound File Converter. Details Follow: I have the following software and version: WavePad v 3.05 Unlicensed Basic Free Version I have been using it very successfully to access the .wma files that my Olympus voice recorder produces in meetings with my wife's chemotherapy doctor. I edit them and create more compressed versions to review and email to my sons. The software works great and has been working this way for more than a year. Today however when I loaded two .wma files from the recorder they were both much shorter than the original files are. Here is the detail for the files: WS310421.WMA Record Time: 06:48:17.00 64kbps 188 MB (193,311 KB) (WavePad Loads from start to: 00:02:29.12) WS310422.WMA Record Time: 11:11:16.00 64kbps 310 MB (317,830 KB) (Wavepad Loads from start to: 04:25:28.75) In both cases the loaded file portions loaded work normally. Loading to WavePad a .wma file from a previous month to check it out, I still get the full file length loaded as before: WS310415.wma 06:08:02.00 64kbps 170 MB (WavePad loads from start to: 06:08:02.33) Windows Media Player sees and plays the full length of all (three) files so it must be something WavePad doesn't like about the two newest .wma files that WMP tolerates. I downloaded the NCH Switch Sound File Converter and obtained the same truncated results that I did with WavePad. I hope to edit these two new files in WavePad so if there is anything I can do to make them compatible, I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.
