No Sound on Playback

• or after clicking Play did the beat cursor start going but no sound,
• or...?

The answer may give us a clue if there is an intermittent bug (the worst kind) that we might be able to get a handle on. Of course it's always easier if we can make it happen repeatedly, but I am glad for you that it's working well now Also, what kind of sound card and video card do you have?

I know that's a hassle for a number of users. We'll be working on that very soon, to get a maintenance release out with a fix.

ttfn,

Thanks Sherry,

The program opened in a reasonably short time.
Transcription time was ok.
But yes, after clicking play, nothing seemed to happen - no beat cursor or sound. However later I did this and it started playing (sound and cursor) after about 20-30 seconds so I realized it wasn't just a sound problem because, as I said, the NWC program worked ok.
I am using the program on a Dell C640 laptop which has a ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 (M7) Video Adapter and Intel 82801CAM ICH3-M - AC'97 Audio Controller [B-1] PCI. So not sure what the problem was.

Looking forward to that practice fix...

Kind regards,
Ian
