It turned out that the following problem is caused by the sound settings using Sound
Blaster Pro on ThinkPad 600E and not Trasncriber's problem. I have
worked out how to use CS4232 on the 600E and don't have the following
problems anymore.
Current bugs: Transcriber works fine on Windows XP and Debian GNU/Linux on my nx9005, but
I am having the following problem with Transcriber on my ThinkPad
600E.
I can start Transcriber and I can open files from 'File - New trans'
and 'File - Open trans...', but when I try to play sound files (=wav
files) with a tab key, a window 'Error: Failed setting format' shows
up and the log is as follows:
********************************************
Failed setting format.
