Subject:MP3 plug-in problem Posted by: Lostdog Date:1/27/2006 5:45:46 AM Hi all I've been using Acid Pro 4.0d for a couple of years on a PC that's not connected to internet. Acid has suddenly refused to allow me to open up MP3s & is telling me to register the MP3 plug-in by taking the 'Activate MP3 Plug-in.htm' file to a web-connected PC. I've tried this but it's attempting to link to the old Sonic Foundry site, so I can't get hold of the '.reg' file to input. I've had a look at previous similar queries on the forum, and the only advice is to re-install Acid. I'd rather avoid this if possible, as it's likely to mess up the recognition of VSTi's, effects etc. - I don't wanna have to go fiddling with the reigistry again - I just want the .reg file for MP3s!! Any help appreciated, but SONY - please can you direct me to a place on your website I can register for the MP3 plugin? Thanks LD
