This not being able to record in Vista seemingly doesn't bother a lot
of folk. I wonder, is it that others have found the way around it but
are keeping quiet in case Microsoft's listening? Maybe they don't
want to own up to recording stuff this way, but for personal use I
don't see the problem. You've had no reply from the Goldwave people
themselves?
Wonder too if Apple users are faced with the same sort of thing. If
they don't, then it Sure is one reason one might consider switching to
the Mac!
I'll be interested too to see if this post makes it as all my attempts
to reply to Jamie's post re. RNIB and web radio boxes simply don't
make it to the list. (I've sent Jamie a copy of this unseen message
to this list personally.)
Cheers,

Hi Ray.
I followed the instructions, but unfortunately , it did not assist me
much.
Caroline told me to go into Sound/Recording and look for other
devices. I
did this but only got one more Line-In function, associated to the
computer's internal card.
I've got my Soundblaster set as the default and I can listen to the
BBC
Player and listen to music files using GoldWave, but as yet, I cannot
find a
way of getting GW to record audio streams.
This is so frustrating and disappointing Ray. If I cannot resolve
this
issue, I'll need to consider removing VISTA and installing XP Media
Center.
Best wishes.
Andy.

So, Andy, and anyone using Vista wanting to record streaming audio,
will you give James's suggested changes to sound settings a try and
tell us if you can then record streams using Goldwave or another
audio
editor?

Try this info. I'm not a Vista user myself, but understand that you
can
record 'what you hear'.
*** start of copied text ***
go to, control panel (classic view) - sound - recording tab - right
click in
the white area - select 'show disabled devices' - right click on
stereo
mix - select 'enable'
now you can use any progam you like e.g. audacity to record what you
hear.
*** End of copied text ***
Hope this is useful, sorry I can't provide any specific instructions
on how
to achieve this with a screenreader.

Hi Douglas.
Same here mate. I have a lovely new crispy VISTA computer yet I'm
using
my really old Packard Bell to record radio shows tonight. I really
do
hope that VISTA is not going to prevent me from using GoldWave and
recording "What you Hear". I'm waiting on some advise from the
experts in
this regard, but my gut feeling is that copywrite is so important,
they
will only now allow you to listen and not record just about
anything
coming through your computer..
I really do hope I'm proven wrong here as recording audio is a very
big
part of my interest in computing. without this function, then
there
is
little in computing for me I'm thinking. If you manage to get
around this
problem, please let me know about it eh?
Very best wishes.
Andy.

Andy,
I have only been using vista for a relatively short time, but I
have had
problems recording
(even via the microphone) with Goldwave. I have had error
messages such
as "Access
violation" etc. from time to time, and have reverted to doing all
recording on an XP system
until I have time to sort out whether there is really a problem
with
Goldwave and Vista.

Hi all.
I'm experiencing some difficulty getting VISTA and my

24
bit
external sound card to record "What you hear". I regularly
record
from
BBC Radio Scotland and would hate to think that VISTA is intent
to
prevent
me from being able to do this.
Would love to hear from anyone using VISTA with GoldWave.
Best wishes.
