when you save a file in a format other than what you started with it will
ask this question. Unless you need to do more work with the original file
then you can say yes to listen to your final changes or no and keep the
original in the work space to either save as is to work on later.

Howard,
What does it mean when goldwave asks if you want to update the file in a
new window? and Why should you say yes or no?
Thanks.
Vinny

I have always used goldwave. Simply load the wave file into the editor;
then do a "save as". The "save as" dialog box has all the stuff you need.
One must set the file type and location as well as the format (bitrate,
etc.) before hitting the "save" button. A five hour file will take quite
some time to complete. Then goldwave will ask if you want to update the
sound in the editor to the new file. I always say "no" and close the
file. Then I open it again or go and try to play it in winamp. The new
file should be (maybe) ten percent of the size of the original file.

Hmm, maybe something got mixed up here. I thought Joe was asking about
converting a five-hour .wav file that he'd created from a minidisc. For
that purpose, WinLame would help, and the YouTube thing is another
matter which you've already resolved.
