I have used Audacity for this myself in the past, plugging into my "microphone" line. 01:23:48 I'm wanting to patch in thru my mini stereo mic jack on my laptop from a DAT deck to record concerts 01:24:57 can I save it as a .wav file, or does it have to be .mp3?? 01:25:32 Hang on, let me check 01:25:43 will do 01:25:47 it will support wav and mp3 (note to get support for mp3 you need to download the lame plugin (yes that's the name) which does your mp3 encoding 01:27:06 I don't want .mp3s, just .wav or else .flac ... is there a plugin available for .flac?? 01:27:49 well since xiph wrote flac and also ogg and I'm fairly sure audacity supports flac 01:28:18 Indeed it does, I just exported a flac file from it just now 01:28:24 cool !!! 01:29:09 yeah aac and mp3 are the only 2 formats that require special plugins the rest are built in including flac 01:29:44 thank you! 01:29:51 You're welcome 01:32:04 which would you suggest would be best for me ... platform only, suite light or suite standard?? 01:32:19 platform does not come with any applications 01:32:29 but 01:32:44 the pre-release: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/portableapps/PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_2.0_Pre-Release_4.2.exe 01:32:59 if you had the pre-release platform it comes with an option to download the apps you want from the updater that's a part of it 01:33:03 it allows you to download any of our apps directly from within itself 01:34:09 I read on the page that there were some bugs, & since going to be recording concerts, a bug could cause me to not get the show 01:34:35 what page are you referring to? 01:34:45 I also c 01:35:07 *challenge you to find an application, any application, that doesn't have bugs. 01:35:38 For most users, we recommend the newer and more full-featured "Next" Pre-Release platform. It should be noted that this is still, technically, a test release, so there will be occasional bugs within it. If you're looking for our 1.6.1 stable release of our platform and suite, you can get it from our PortableApps.com Platform and Suite 1.6.1 download page. 01:35:41 in that case, how about you install the latest regular stable version of audacity to your laptop and test it out before the concert 01:35:44 It's part of software development - constantly find and fixing bugs. Even Microsoft and Apple are constantly fixing bugs in their programs and operating systems :) 01:36:54 the platform bugs will not affect your recording, once audacity portable is launched it will still work, you would still have what you want, the issue would be the platform not audacity portable 01:37:20 Thank you +Gord ... you've been a great help!!!!!!!! 01:37:31 However, the Audacity team is pushing version 1.3.13 as the recommended version for anyone using Windows or Mac operating systems 01:37:45 you're welcome, glad to be of assistance 01:38:32 O ... will it work with Windows 7 64 bit?? 01:38:53 of course. That's what I'm on right now, and it works great 01:39:11 :) 01:39:31 just asking ... 01:39:55 No worries, lots of people ask similar questions 01:40:07 is this irc room one of the apps available? 01:40:41 I maintain an IRC Client called PChat and there are others like kvirc that's available at portableapps.com 01:40:45 there are irc clients available, but the room itself is hosted by freenode 01:41:00 http://freenode.net/ 01:41:25 by default PChat Portable will connect you to this server and channel (can be disabled if you want) 01:41:47 cool ... have enjoyed your company & assistance!! 01:42:11 Bye for now ... off to download land 01:42:19 like there is a server list in PChat just find freenode and click connect and it will take you here 01:42:24 and have fun 01:42:57 *** pa_9048 has quit (Quit: Page closed) 01:56:31 *** kAlug_ (~kalug@187.101.114.113) has joined #portableapps 01:58:00 good night folks 01:58:13 night 01:58:53 GordCaswell: check the VistaSwitcher thread 01:59:07 the ExecShell thing? 01:59:54 And the language. 02:00:42 yep, saw it.

AFAIK, every entry is there on purpose. 13:46:29 the readme.txt says using FirefoxPortable.ini is not necessary so I thought using it and editing it some would not have any efect at all 13:46:34 no it shouldn't affect it 13:47:04 ok 13:47:25 the launcher would take care of stuff like RunLocally if it isn't defined in the ini file 13:48:07 @ZachThibeau that was actually what I was concerned about 13:48:21 the runlocally part 13:48:36 ZachThibeau: I thought that custom FirefoxPortable.ini completely replaces settings compiled into PAL. 13:48:48 I'm sorry for spreading misinformation. :( 13:49:09 TPFC-SYSTEM: that's unrelated to pal the ini he's talking about is usually located in /Other/sources 13:49:30 those provide overrides for the launcher 13:49:41 IE disabling the splash screen etc 13:50:13 now if it was the pal ini file then yes that would affect launcher specifications 13:50:41 all clear now 13:51:04 So there are two separate INI files that have different effects? 13:51:20 How does PAL recognize them? 13:52:00 I don't know since I didn't write pal but this is what I've known since I started working with John back in 06/07 13:52:46 OK, thanks Zach. 13:54:19 *** pa_7179 has parted #portableapps (None) 14:01:08 wow my nsis is rusty, trying to generate an installer for PChat to install on desktops 14:01:33 got the gist of it, just trying to figure out making a section required lol 14:09:58 *** TPFC-SYSTEM has quit (Quit: TPFC-SYSTEM) 14:10:27 *** kAlug (bd2f3afe@gateway/web/freenode/ip.189.47.58.254) has joined #portableapps 14:10:45 TPFC-SYSTEM: "So there are two separate INI files that have different effects?

I'll rephrase. 15:03:23 "now if it was the pal ini file then yes that would affect launcher specifications" 15:03:47 I wanted to know where the INI should be in order to be the "pal ini file". 15:04:28 With resetting the settings, I meant resetting them to global PAL defaults. 15:04:45 That should happen if an empty PAL ini is used, right? 15:05:50 In addition, I asked just for curiosity. :) I don't currently have any customized INI files. 15:47:21 *** kAlug (bac98f8c@gateway/web/freenode/ip.186.201.143.140) has joined #portableapps 15:48:20 *** Gizm0kid2oo5 is now known as O1v1k35K 15:55:49 *** O1v1k35K is now known as Ol1v135K 15:55:59 TPFC-SYSTEM: An empty launcher.ini will raise an error.
