Thanks DG. I had a look at Sony Sonic Stage but for an old fart like me, it's a bit on the complex side. I've got Free CD Ripper anyway and if I use that, PTE accepts and recognises the audio with no trouble. Regards, Don.

Peter, Yes, I did use WMP for ripping the audio. I hadn't experienced the problem before because I invariably edit the audio before putting it into PTE. Just this time however, I wanted a quick listen to judge whether the beginning of the track would "fit" musically before I proceeded further. I've since done a bit of playing around and find that this does seem to be a characteristic of trying to use unedited WMV rips in PTE. Interesting. I wonder what the explanation is. No doubt there's an answer out there somewhere? I apologise for being so dilatory in responding to your post. Once I resolved my little problem I just got on with my AV construction and forgot about checking the forum for any further posts. Regards, Don.

Thanks Xaver. I owe you an apology. My problem was due to my lack of observation of detail. What was actually occurring, was that the size of the file I was trying to add in Track 8, a WAV (just for trial purposes), was showing up as 0:00 when I imported it into the Music window - and I hadn't noticed that! I feel somewhat abashed. I can't say what caused the problem; the file size showed correctly in the folder where I had it stored. Anyway the fault didn't appear after I opened the file in my audio editor and re-saved it, so all's well now. I haven't experienced any error messages but it sounds as if you may have experienced a little computer glitch. Thanks again for your effort to help me. Regards,Don.

G'day Folks, Is there a limit to the number of audio tracks that PTE can handle via the Project Options > Music tab? My recent experience (with v6.5) indicates that it isn't able to cope with more than 7. Don.
