Version Audacity 3.0.4-alpha-20210705 (cookiengineer/audacity). I was expecting things to more or less proceed normally as the FFmpeg files are in a seperate folder that I believe Audacity should be checking for.Īdditional information (please complete the following information): Select the 'Locate' button, and when/if prompted find and select avformat-55.dll. Go to the Edit toolbar and select 'Preferences'. I will post the logs below this very well could be a simple case of my own incompetence but for the sake of posterity I figured it would be worth posting. I am getting errors in the logs, notably "Error 193: 1% is not a valid Win32 application". However, it refuses to locate the avformat-55.dll file despite it being present in C:/Program Files (x86)/FFmpeg for Audacity. I have gotten this fork to run and it seems to be more or less functional (I am also experiencing the disabled plugin bug another user reported). to see diagnostic information about FFmpeg detection.To confirm, FFmpeg was functional when I was using vanilla Audacity. You can also choose Help > Diagnostics > Show Log. button to obtain the correct library for your operating system. If you still see "not found", you may have installed the wrong libraries. Note that the FFmpeg library has been locatedįFmpeg Library Version should now show a set of three version numbers for the sub-libraries of FFmpeg ("F" for libavformat version, "C" for libavcodec version and "U" for libavutil version).
Navigate to the folder that contains FFmpeg and select the file " ffmpeg.55.64bit.dylib".If the " Locate FFmpeg" dialog appears, click Browse.If a " Success" message indicates Audacity has now automatically detected valid FFmpeg libraries and asks if you want to detect them manually, click No, then OK to close Preferences.To do this, access Preferences then the " Libraries" tab on the left:Īs in the image above, the "FFmpeg Library Version" will say " FFmpeg library not found". If you installed FFmpeg while Audacity was running, or if you installed FFmpeg to a non-default location, Audacity will ask you to configure Preferences to locate the FFmpeg library.
