Greetings,
I am an XP Home user, because of this, I will await the final
release of
this - see below.
This beta update is not available on the download page.
To test this new version, go to
http://www.goldwave.com/beta.php
On the site page it says:
GoldWave v5.63 Beta
Beta Version
This is a beta version of GoldWave, which means more testing is
required
before it can be used for production work. Do not install this
version if
you require a stable version of GoldWave. Do not contact GoldWave Inc.
for
the beta key. Please read below.
Important! GoldWave v5.6X will be the last version compatible with
Window
2000 and XP. Future updates will require Windows Vista, Windows 7, or
later.
If you still use Windows 2000/XP and are aware of any issues in this
beta,
please report them before development shifts away from those
versions of
Windows.
This will be the last beta update. The next update will be a stable
version.
New Features
· Playback/Recording
This version of GoldWave contains significant changes to the
playback and
recording code. By default, the new Windows Vista/7 Core
Audio/WASAPI is
used. Previous versions of GoldWave used DirectX (DirectSound) for all
audio
input and output. However DirectX has been the source of many problems
and
has been deprecated on Windows Vista/7 where it no longer provides
direct
access to the audio hardware. DirectSound support is still included
as an
option in GoldWave and is used by default for Windows 2000/XP.
· Media Foundation
This version of GoldWave uses the new Media Foundation in Windows 7 to
access system decoders to handle a wider range of audio and video
files.
Previous versions of GoldWave used DirectShow to access system
decoders.
That functionality has not been removed but it is used only if Media
Foundation is unable to open a file or on older versions of Windows
that do
no have Media Foundation.
· iTunes M4A
GoldWave can now open and save iTunes M4A files through Media
Foundation on
Windows 7. Currently there appears to be a flaw in the way Media
Foundation
handles cover art and copyright metadata. Although cover art can be
read
from a file, any attempt to write cover art results in all metadata
being
wiped from the file. To avoid this problem, the only metadata GoldWave
writes is text. Cover art cannot be saved in an M4A file for now.
· Covert Art
Cover art is shown under File | Information. Click on the image to
replace
the artwork with another image.
· Open URL
A new File | Open URL command has been added to open a file directly
from a
website using Media Foundation on Window 7.
· Window Layering
In previous versions of GoldWave, windows and dialogs could appear on
top of
other applications. Changes have been made to avoid that. However
further
testing is needed to ensure that windows and dialogs appear correctly
on top
of GoldWave's Main window and not behind it, which would make the
program
appear frozen.
· VST
The first beta version of the VST plug-in is included. However, there
appear
to be numerous stability issues with VST plug-ins. Many plug-ins
violate the
VST specification in a variety of ways and the specification itself has
issues.
Changes in v5.63
· Enhanced Batch Processing window
· Comments in Batch Processing process list
· One click recording ("Create new file" option)
· Fixes (see WhatsNew.txt)
Changes in v5.62
· Improved ID3 v2.2 tag support (reading only)
· Enhanced "/new" command line parameter
· Enhanced CD title prefix option
· Improved metadata extraction from iTunes/M4A files
· New key codes for media/browser buttons
· Fixes (see WhatsNew.txt)
Changes in v5.61
· Improved ID3 v2.4 tag support (reading only)
· Volume controls in Stereo Center effect
· Stricter control of when Open URL command is available
· Device "Shared mode" move to Quality list
· Fixes (see WhatsNew.txt)
What Needs Testing
· USB microphones (mono and stereo)
· Very long file/path names (longer than 255 characters).
· Batch Processing comments and new layout
· Reading of ID3 v2.2, v2.3, v2.4 tags.
· Reading of metadata in iTunes and other MPEG4 audio files.
· Playback and Recording
Make sure you have the latest sound driver from the manufacturer!
Using the
"Update Driver" button in Windows is not a reliable way to get the
latest
driver. If you don't know how to obtain and install the latest driver,
please do not install the beta.
· M4A open and save
Cover art and copyright metadata will not be supported until Microsoft
fixes
Media Foundation or at least provides sufficient documentation to
explain
how to write cover art to a new file without destroying all text
metadata.
· Open URL
· Window layering
· Stereo Center effect
· VST plug-in
· General overall testing and anything else mentioned in the
WhatsNew.txt file for v5.60 to v5.63.
Installation
Download link: GoldWave v5.63 Beta (5.5MB)
To install the beta version, you must enter a beta key. It is "bt-12".
You
understand and accept the risks of using this beta software. You are
prohibited from posting, e-mailing, or communicating the beta key in
any
way. You must direct any users to this page so they can read about the
risks
before installing the software.
Please contact GoldWave Inc. to report any problems. Updates will be
posted
on the forum and on Twitter.
Known Bugs
· Choosing the Configure button for Joystick control may cause an
assertion failure and application termination. This is caused by a
bug in
the Embarcadero compiler.
· Cover art cannot be added to M4A files. This is caused by a flaw in
Microsoft Media Foundation.
· Copyright text is not saved in M4A files in a standard way. This is
caused by a flaw in Microsoft Media Foundation.

summer or winter, often, we are the warmest place
in the UK according to stats given out on the late
night BBC Radio 4 weather forecast, when Lee-on-Solent,
Gosport, is frequently sited and as we are only a few
miles west, we enjoy the clement conditions also.
