"Inaudable" won't run.

[chiangrai]

I have the program Inaudible but it won't run on some files.

I buy the files legit from you know who and usualy have no problems

but some times I do.

This time it's saying that the output path is too long for windows and to

please adjust your output path.

I tried changing the file name in all the places I could think of but

it didn't work.

What can I do..........

It's not just the name of the file, it's the name of the full file path including all the folders and sub-folders.  Try using a different location or shortening some of the folder names if possible.

 

EDIT: The full path can be 260 characters, max.

If you want to check if any file exceeds the normal 260 ch path length you can use 'pathscan' program which is tiny, portable and easy to use.

So I put the file in Disk D and change the name to M.

So when I open the program the Audible file is D/M.aax and I change

output file to D//M.mp3.

I see now that I have changed the output file and not the output path.

How do I do this.

Try the program inAudible.!

Come on guys I really need to run this book through this program.

 

How do I change the output path.I change the output file inside the program

but that's not it.

If you are attempting to save the file as D:/M.mp3 then you should certainly not be getting an issue with the path length.

Can you post a screen shot of the error? I'm not familiar with the specific program.

OP, to test it, copy the file you are trying to open from your normal storage folder to your C drive. No need to change the file name.

 

Point your program at the copied file on your C drive and try to open it. The path to the file should be C:\ *filename*. This should prove that the problem is with the file path being too long.

 

Note: Even if you copy to your desktop the file path will be something like: C:\Users\*Username*\Desktop\*filename*.

 

Edit: If you go to Folder Options (the snap is from W10 but similar on W7), play with the two options marked in red; first one to show the full path and the second to display extension types on files (if you haven't already unchecked it).

How are you changing the extension (from .aax to .mp3)?

O.k...Thanks Crisinth..........I messed about with what you said and it worked some how.

Not sure how or why but the problem is solved.
