lacogada Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 Trying to add an mp3 that I recorded from my piano. On it's own, the mp3 plays with no problem. Once added in PTE9, it has some very loud screaching sounds. Does not look normal when added, please see attachment.

Igor Posted December 23, 2019 Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 Hi Danna, Yes, I see the problem in PTE 9. Such problem occurs very rarely with MP3 audio files in PTE. Maybe one report per year. I'm not sure, it's broken MP3 or audio decoder can't decode it correctly. I checked the file in PTE 10 and everything was OK. In the latest version we fully replaced all audio and video decoders. Probably the new decoder has better compatibility with certain audio files? If you recorded this MP3 file, can you change any parameters for encoding? If not, try to simply re-encode the MP3 in any audio editor, for example, in Audacity. It should help. Also I recommend to increase bitrate value from 128 kbps to 256 kbps for better audio quality.

lacogada Posted December 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2019 Thanks Igor. Just downloaded trial for PTE 10 and it did not have the problem ( upgrade time ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronniebootwest Posted December 24, 2019 Report Share Posted December 24, 2019 Hi Lacogada, Version 10 is well worth the upgrade and I can recommend it to you. The sound and Video quality, especially when saving to an MP4 audio file, is exceptional. Go ahead and upgrade, it's Christmas! Treat yourself. Ron West.
