Strange. It should be there, even if you haven't registered the plug-in yet. Can you open an MP3 file at all?

Hi again Louie,

Try completely uninstalling Sound Forge and then do a reinstall. (If you have any other SoFo product, uninstall that as well and then reinstall Sound Forge.) Be sure to delete any folder residue before reinstalling. (By default, it's "C:\Program Files\Sonic Foundry Setup\" and "C:\Program Files\Sonic Foundry\".)

HTH,
Iacobus

Laaba,

Which drop-down menu ? MP3 encoding should be in the Save As menu dialogue drop-down, as opposed to a Tools (etc) menu.

Hi geoff,
I mean the drop down menu when you first open a file.There are many of them wav.av.mpeg etc. but no mp3.When i try to open it i choose all files and i can see the mp3 above but when i try to open it it gives me the error.
The "save as" doesn´t show an MP3 format to save either.
thanx
Louie
