Hi,
I am encountering a very weird issue. I opened a wave file on wavepad but I can't hear anything. But when I opened a mp3 file it can be played on it. I am using windows vista. Actually both are playable before but suddenly wave file does not play.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks.
I can't say as I have ever encountered your situation. I am using Vista on two computers (Home Premium and Home Basic) and I have a copy of Wavepad on each. I never record .mp3 files, just .wav files, and I have never had a problem with the sound being played and Wavepad performing as it should.
I know it's a stupid question, but have you verified that the .wav file is not corrupt or "missing" content? Will the file play in Windows Media Player? It can happen that a file can be trashed because a user mistakenly saves only a small portion of the file or uses one of the "tools" to knock most of the frequencies and saves the result inadvertently.
I don't mean to be insulting, but I just have never had your problem, and I don't think it is a Vista issue, though there are plenty of those. I was one of the first to get Vista (just had to replace that 8-year old computer) a couple of years ago, and so I have been on the "bleeding" edge of Vista "enhanced" features. It was not pretty.
Let me know if you find out what the problem is. Have a great day.
