Peter 18Jul16: This is a page to act as a workbench for my testing on W10 and macOS.

Some DEVEL FIXMADE bugs get "parked" by me as they involve downloading plug-ins from sites I know nothing about - I am not prepared to risk that.

See the Talk page for bugs resolved in earlier releases.

Windows 7 - will disappear in early 2020 when W7 becomes EOL

  • P5 964 - Windows 7: Support data generated if quitting using task manager when "About Audacity" is open. This is now marked CLOSED/WONTFIX


Re-opened

  • P5 1799 - Un-muting with a single track unnecessarily activates the Solo button - original bug ok on Mac, BUT closely related issue still occurs
  • P4 1806 - Extreme negative settings in Change Tempo cause an "apparent" hang/freeze
  • P4 534 - Page Up/Page Down when slider focused also scrolls the project. looks OK on W10 but iffy on Mac
  • P2 1763 - Clicks on starting/stopping playback. I get stop clicks with a sine tone
  • P2 2101 - Mac recovery file can be corrupted before recovery when switching between 32 and 64 bit builds
  • P1 2134 - Audacity silently fails to launch when audacity.cfg is locked read-only
  • P1 2135 - Audacity crashes if launched with a locked pluginregistry.cfg file
  • P1 2142 - Typing within a label track selected does not create a label.
  • P3 1892 - Mac accessibility: VoiceOver does not read the categories in Preferences


Pending

  • P4 2106 - Mac build for one architecture can't recover autosave files made by build for the other


Devel Fix-Made

None


Parked - because I don't have the wherewithal to test these

  • P4 2137 - Nyquist: Assert when receiving multibyte characters - I don't have debug builds
  • P5 2100 - AIFF exports GT 4GB are trapped but error message is only "WAV" - We need the German translation before this can be tested
  • P1 2153 - Crash when attempting multi-channel recording - I can't test this, I have no multi-channel device


To be tested

  • P4 1843 - Tracks menu error messages do not have "?" help butttons to link to the Manual - target wrong (non-existent) page in the Manual


What's to be done about this/these

  • P3 461 - MIDI or Allegro export filter does not enforce output format cross-platform - looks ok for me on w10, Step 1 OK on Mac but not Step 2
  • P1 2149 - Audacity consumes large amounts of CPU time - prob. OK - held over open till RC1


The Bugs I have tested so far on Windows and that look to be good to go so far on W10 - still to be tested on macOS and Linux

  • P1 2112 - Crash when opening Equalization settings in a Macro
  • P3 1180 - Custom FFmpeg Export: an empty presets list can be Exported
  • P3 2122 - Screenshot tool: no way to exit using the keyboard
  • P4 440 - Metadata Editor: Tags without values can't be added
  • P4 240 - Time track selected by itself cannt be removed with Tracks>Remove Tracks
  • P4 1269 - "backslash percent" not saved in effect presets
  • P4 1302 - Metadata Editor should be disabled for (external program) in Export Multiple, as in straight export
  • P4 1780 - Sample Rate dialog does not appear when track has custom sample rate
  • P1 2159 - Commands with set cursor or set selection start/end during playback do not work
  • P5 680 - "Undo Recover" does not undo.
  • P4 1582 - Incorrect level shown in Mixer Board meter when track has positive gain
  • P1 2170 - Repeated use of the Trim button crashes Audacity
  • P1 2168 - Themed buttons do not update after theme change
  • P1 2172 - Pin/Unpin button does not update after theme change


The Bugs I have tested so far on Mac and that look to be good to go so far on macOS still to be tested on Windows and Linux

None
