I am using Audacity to transfer cassettes to CD which
is working good.
How do I separate the tracks?
When I tape it is continuous.

I don't use Audacity, but I thought it had the capability of doing that (it would be a manual operation to separate them out).

If not, an audio editor such as GoldWave (what I use) will allow you to manually do that. Goldwave is a shareware program and it has a trial version but I don't think the trial version will allow you to save anything. www.goldwave.com

There is another (older) recording program that many used to use "polderbits" but I don't have any info on that one.

The only other way is to record one song, stop the tape and then save that song, and then start a new recording and start the tape and record the next song.

I've had programs that were supposed have the capability of separating songs after, for example one side of an LP or tape was recorded, but all of them that I've had did not accurately separate the songs. On one program (Roxio) I recorded one side of an LP (6 songs) and I wound up with 32 separated "songs" from that. As previously noted, I now use Goldwave and manually separate the songs.

Audacity is an AUDIO recording program, not VIDEO.
If you have Windows XP or Vista, the Windows Movie Maker program will record video as long as you have the proper interface for the camcorder.
