Unable to+decode+or+import+selected+audio

Looking for a solution. I am running windows 7, adobe captivate 4. I have attempted to convert text to speech, I get the error unable to+decode+or+import+selected+audio. I have gone to the supplied library same error. I have taken a mp3, changed it to 16 bit rate, made the file very small same error. I am running out of options. I have also reinstalled captivate. I also have CS5 running on the machine. Any suggestions?

Hi,
Re-install the Neo-speech installer and try the workflow.
Regards,
Vikranth.

Error in Adobe Captivate 4: "unable to decode and import the selected wav - mp3 file"

Good day!
I have a problem. When i want to import music file from standart Gallery, i see the mistake: unable to decode and import the selected wav - mp3 file.
I can't import mp3,wav files...
In Adobe Help site i have found this: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Captivate/4.0/Using/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119e9582190-7fd8. html
But in my Adobe Captivate 4 directory i don't have file regsvr32 NSAudio.dll.
Question: where i can download this file?
Thanks!

Hi there
As I recall there were two different "fixes" for audio with Captivate 4. One involved replacing the dll and another had something to do with installation problems on Windows XP. So give the link below a try.

Unable to decode and import the select wav/mp3 file

Hi,
I've been TRYING to test the Text-to-speech feature in
Captivate 4. Problem: "Unable to decode and import the select
wav/mp3 file" each and every time I want to use it. Frustrating!
I also tried importing sounds from the library, same problem.
My system is Vista Business 64Bit, 4Gb RAM, Intel SSD hard
drive, conexant high definition audio 221 on a Lenovo T400.
How do I fit this? I want to try it out damnt :)

I went through the "unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file" error. After talking with an Adobe Rep, I quickly realized that I could NOT use the directions. I have no experience in using Command Prompts. I have written down the directions by key stroke for those people that are similar to me. Enjoy!
For Vista and Win7,
Click on the circle start menu,
In the search box, type in command and in the generated list, "right-click" on the comman link and change to "run as administrator".
Go back to the search box, type in command and hit enter. This will take you to the command prompt window (black window w/ white text) lol
You have to get to the right directory first.
Type: cd (space-bar) .. (hit enter)
Type: cd (space-bar) .. (hit enter)
If Captivate is installed on Program Files (x86) ---
Type: cd (space-bar) progra~2 (hit enter)
If Captivate is installed on Program Files
Type: cd (space-bar) progra~1 (hit enter)
Type: cd (space-bar) Adobe (hit enter)
Type: cd (space-bar) Adobe (space-bar) Captivate (space-bar) 4 (hit enter)
Type: regsvr32 (space-bar) NSAudio.dll (hit enter)
If you get an error at any point, re-key that particular line.
Once you see that the last line of command went through, open up Captivate and test the Text to Speech. These instructions fixed both computers I was working on!!!!

CP4 unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file

I am trying to import a .wav file into a project and get an error message 'unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file'.
I have tried the solution huan_miguel posted a week ago for someone with the same problem.
http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2009/03/adobe_captivate_4_installatio n.html
executed all the steps described in this link.
Unfortunately, the problem is still there.
Any other solution?

You're probably going to need to do both.
Although Captivate can certainly accept a 10 meg audio file, you would need to add it to the movie and then synchronise the slides to the audio. Chopping the audio file up and adding the relevant bits to each slide has both advantages and disadvantages. It's easier to control the playback synchronisation when you divide up the audio, but it's more work.
Take a look at this graphic from SoundBooth when I export an audio file recorded in Captivate 5:
Notice that it shows the bitrate of the Captivate WAV file as being 16 bit. This is quite a low bitrate. You can go as high as 32 bit in SoundBooth, however, in my experience, when you try to import a WAV into Captivate that is over 16 bit you will encounter issues. Cp just doesn't seem to like it.
If you want to learn more about bit rates in multimedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rate
Suffice to say, you need to find out what the current bit rate of the audio file is, and if necessary, save it as 16 bit for Captivate. For this, you will require some kind of audio editing software.
You can try using Audacity as someone else suggested: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ and try exporting the file out as 16 bit.
However, if you are going to be doing quite a bit of this type of work, I would suggest you invest in Adobe Soundbooth, or something of that ilk. You'll enjoy the experience more.

Unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file

I am trying to import mp3's into a Captivate 3 presentation
but keep getting this error "Unable to decode and import the
selected wav/mp3 file." I am using the same mp3 files that I have
used many times with projects in Cap1 and Cap2. I have converted
the files to wav's and tried but I'm still getting the same
message. I have a deadline and I'm stumped.
Any ideas?

Hi DianaUNC
Interesting. I've seen it happen with WAV files but not MP3.
Do you still have Captivate 2 around? If so, do these successfully
import into Captivate 2? One thought was that you might pop them
into something like Audacity and save them out again. Perhaps
something is amiss with the encoding used.
Or you might try the trick of opening them in Windows Sound
Recorder and saving them out of that in a different format. I know
that works with one particular WAV file I have.
Cheers... Rick

Unable to decode and import wav/mp3 file

I've recorded an audio file using Mbox 2 and Pro Tools LE 7.
I have exported the file to the wav format, but when I try to
import it into my Captivate 2 file, I get the following error
message.
"Unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file."
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks for the help.
Mark

Hi "Chemistry guy",
A WAV is not a WAV is not a WAV. There are many "types" of
WAV audio file. Check to be sure that your WAV file is in "
PCM" format. That should be easy with a good audio editor.
Matter of fact, it should be easy even with Windows included "Sound
Recorder" application.
To use your own audio editor, I imagine you know how to find
and change file properties.
On the other hand, if you want to use "Sound Recorder" ... on
WinXP go to "Start > All Programs > Accessories >
Entertainment > Sound Recorder", then open the file, then go to
"File > Save As" ... and
at the bottom of the save-as dialog, you will see "Format"
(describing current file formatting) and a button to "CHANGE" that
format. Click the button and you will see a drop-list containing
various formats.
Select "PCM" and
save the file.
Hopefully with this change made, you will be good to go.

Unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file" error in Captivate 4

Good afternoon.
I have exported and edited the audio from a Captivate presentation in Soundbooth. After editing, I save the file as a .WAV. When I import the file to the slide, I recieve the error message listed above.
I have followed other threads in the forum and performed the following:
XP Pro (32 Bit - SP3)
E-Learning Suite
Captivate 4
Soundbooth CS4
Downloaded and installed new NSAudio.dll
Successfully registered NSAudio.dll
Have successfully ran the restoreCP4regentries.bat and the restoreRegPermCP4.bat
Rebooted the computer
Ran the program as an adminstrator (although it asked me to re-register the product -a little strange)
I still recieve the error when I try to import the WAV files. If I convert the files to MP3, they can be imported. At this time I'd prefer to not import them as MP3.
WAV format is uncompressed, 44, 32 floating bit (I also unsuccessfully tried other bits).
I've lost an entire afternoon of productivity to this.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this? It appears I have followed all the recommendations I have seen so far.

Hi there
I believe Captivate is a bit persnickety about the WAV format. You will likely need to adjust some setting with the WAV output. You might begin by trying the following and see if it resolves.
Begin with a backup copy of the audio clip
Open basic Windows Sound Recorder
Open the WAV file with the issues in Sound Recorder
Click File > Save As
Click the Change... button - make no changes and click OK (this should change to PCM format)
Try importing the WAV file after that and see what happens.
Personally, I'd be using the MP3 myself. Not sure why you are against it. After all, that's what will end up in your compiled result.
Cheers... Rick

Captivate 2 - Windows XP - Unable to decode and import the selected wav/mp3 file

Hi - I have read through all of the postings related to this topic and have tried all of the helpful solutions to no avail.
I have verifed that the file is PCM Format (countless times)
I have registered the NSAudio.dll
I am still receiving the referenced error.
I'm running Windows XP (not Vista)
I'm running Captivate 2
I have a Dell Latitude
I tried to import the file as an mp3 and received a Microsoft error
mfc90ll.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
If anyone has any other ideas, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi again
About all I can think of to suggest is to try converting the formats using something like Audacity. See if you get a different result.

Unable to select audio to import in Flash CS5

Hi,
I'm working the Flash CS5 app on my Mac OSX v10.6.8. I've been working on a cartoon lately and trying to import some audio to my library, but I can't even select a file (of any type; .wav .mp3 .wathever). I already reinstalled Flash, updated quicktime and searched all over the web for a possible answer. Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Gene

you can't see any sound file when trying to import into your library?
if so, when you click file>import>import to library, check near the bottom right of the import to library panel to see that "all files" are in the combobox.
or you see an error after selecting sound files?

From your statements above, it sounds like you never tried to burn a CD for at least the first year that you owned the laptop, as it had a one year warranty on it. While you might have used it frequently to install software, play DVDs, Blu-Ray disks, etc, that's unclear from your statements. Nonetheless, it might just be dirty-dusty. So, before deleting-uninstalling any software, and given they're cheap, try a CD-DVD Cleaner Disk first and see if that resolves your problems.
Let us know what happens. Good luck.

IPHOTO As a result of trying to import "selected" files, I am now unable to import any photo.

As a result of trying to import "selected" photos, I am now unable to import any.
When I insert my memory card, the message I get is : Unrecognizable Format".
Help!

See if you can upoad the files from the memory card to a folder on the Desktop with Image Capture or with a card reader. If you can then put the card back in the camera and reformat it with the camera. Take some test shots and try importing as you normally do again.

How do I import stereo audio as pan centered, "Dual Mono?"

Greetings,
For most of my video recording, I’m running two wireless mics and am recording in stereo.
90% of the time, I’m working with one track or the other and, because I’m cutting for broadcast news, the pan for the audio needs to be centered.
Is there a way to import the audio I recorded in stereo as Dual Mono with the pan for each channel center?
It’s a pain to have to go through each clip and make it Dual Mono and then chose Pan Mod Default to center it.
I bring in my video as indiviaual clips so I can’t select a single clip in the Event Panel and make my changes for the whole project.
Regards,
Steve

Select the clips in the event, and set the audio as [Dual] Mono!
There is, as I remember, no option for this during import - but you can select multiple clips and set it on all at once.

How to import analog audio into garage band

I have an iMac with 2.5 GHz Intel Core 5i 8 GB memory OSX 10.7.5 and I am trying to import analog audio from a reel to reel tape deck so I can edit it and burn to a CD. I have a elgato video capture device with RCA female plugs on one side and USB on the other. (I've used this device to import analog video and audio to iMovie and Adobe Premiere Elements). I am told that I could import analog audio to Garage Band to edit and burn , however when I launch Garage Band I am not sure what part of the program I should be selecting and how to go about importing the analog audio. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
