Regardless of which channel it records the duration shows all zeroes. It shows that its recording when audio is present but I cant figure out what i've accidently changed and didn't realize it.
Any suggestions?

What do you have your input sound device set to in the Audio Control > Recorders tab? Are the mp3 files themselves silent?
mp3 files are also silent zero seconds long each.

You're seeing these indicators light up when there's activity?
actually no, just checked

There lies the problem. Even when there isn't activity you should see a baseline green if you're connected to a mic input. Check Windows sound mixer. Make sure the input isn't turned down or muted. Check the USB device itself for the same. Which audio output are you connected to on the 996p2 itself?. Because you have the skip silence box checked on the recorder tab, the recorder won't record & therefore files won't show duration when there's no sound coming through

Connected to the REC input on the scanner. It worked for months and stopped when I done some cord management on my PC.

Couple more things to check, if your USB sound card has separate inputs for mic and headphone, make sure the cord is plugged into the mic port. If it has buttons for volume and to mute the mic, check those as well
Did you change the cord you were using to a different one? If so does it work if you use the original cord?
Is it a desktop or laptop pc?
It was the mic input. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and like magic its working again. Thanks for the help!
