I'm having trouble recording mp3s. My Asus laptop has 2 headphone jacks and I used to use a short cable between one of them to my microphone jack and use Magix to record internet radio while I'm at work.
I recently had a virus removed that required reinstalling Windows 7. Since then one headphone jack stopped working and when I connect the one that does work to the mic jack I just get a buzz in the recording.
If I connect a mic to the jack and record from that it seems to work but the recording is not as good as when I would go directly to the headphone jack.
Help
I listen to Rush on KSCO and KXNT on TuneIn.
Have you reinstalled the audio drivers?
Are any codecs missing?
Microsoft and Fraunhoffer got into a tiff and Win7 “officially” cannot rip any cd’s to mp3 because the codec Fraunhoffer II S is not allowed.
[There are ways around it, obviously. Fail hard Microsoft, fail hard.]
Make certain the drivers and codecs are present.
For audio only.
Try plugging it into the other ‘hole’. Some computers have a Line-in next to the regular audio port.
If that doesn’t work, try reinstalling the drivers.
This assumes you have done a full restart.
This is way of subject, but as this post may attract computer goorooz....
Does anyone know how to change the email default for Office Word 7?
The “Help” ( I use that term loosely), is useless.
“Default Settings” is a joke in Windows 7.
If I apologize for butting into this thread. You are obligated to accept it...so says a number of criminals and miscreants.
If you can get your internet station on Shoutcast, use Winamp with the Streamripper plugin and you will have no need of microphones.
HEAR, HEAR!
(pun sort of intended)

See if any devices have a yellow exclamation point next to them, especially audio. May have to go to the manufacturer’s website to download the correct driver or codecs. Windows update doesn't do everything.
later
You may simply have to adjust the volume control on one of the devices. There should be an audio system “mixer” that can be found from the Windows “control panel” that lets you adjust the volumes.
They're all turned all the way up
tools > internet options > programs > internet programs [set programs button] > Associate a file type or protocol with a program > (scroll waaay down to) Protocols
Haven’t used Office Word 7,so I’m not sure.
There should be someting under the preferences tab, or you would think!
It being Office, who knows since they have settings stashed all over from what I know.
Ping to someone who may have used Office Word and might know how ot beat it into submission or knows who can.
more whistles & bells than ya can shake a stick at
Oops, sorry .. all that above still holds, but ya need to open IE first, THEN click ‘tools > etc’ .. lol
I have some VHS tapes of my dad felling some big redwoods that I would like to put on disc. Sounds like it would work for that. Thanks.
This may sound rather trivial, but did you go to the sound mixer in windows and make sure that the line input is turned on and the volume turned up? You can find the sound mixer in the windows start bar, not far from the clock. You may need to look in the file menus of the sound mixer to switch to the recording controls.
