Windows Forum / Windows XP / Music / May 2005Cannot record .wav from a CD
I'm using XP (SP2) and I have WMP 9. When I try to record a brief .wav from a track on a CD that's playing, it acts like its being recorded, but I get nothing when I try to play back the results. What's wrong? Yes I'm new at this. Have you tried upgrading to WMP 10? I'm using XP (SP2) and I have WMP 9. When I try to record a brief .wav from a track on a CD that's playing, it acts like its being recorded, but I get nothing when I try to play back the results. What's wrong? Yes I'm new at this. No, it doesn't help. It seems like maybe it only wants to record from a microphone, the Help function says you need one, but another place in Help it says you just need an Audio Input Device, defined as a mic or a CD-player for examples. Is there a way to do it in Media Player instead of just using Sound Recorder? I only want about 5 seconds' worth of the song. > Have you tried upgrading to WMP 10? > > I'm using XP (SP2) and I have WMP 9.

Right click on the little speaker down in the task bar and left click on it . Then make sure something isn't muted. No, it doesn't help.

Nope; it still does not help. The Sound Recorder appears to run, but no sound is recorded. > Right click on the little speaker down in the task bar and left click on it > ..

Upgrading from WMP9 to 10 will have absolutely no effect if you can't solve the WM9 problem. Also on playback make sure nothing is muted (except microphone). Cheers, jerry It doesn't help. I have come to the conclusion that Sound Recorder will only work from a microphone and will not record any clips from a CD. The help functions for XP and for Sound Recorder itself are contradictory on this. Microsoft ought to fix that. |
