You can’t use Audacity as a streaming server, but the program uses it libavcodec and libavformat from the FFmpeg project to save and convert raw audio material. This is what FFmpeg brings to audio production

Did you get a choice, or did the program just find the file immediately after you pushed Locate? I think now (just maybe) it gave me a choice between the program finding it and yours truly finding it.

I'm sure that (if memory serves, and sometimes it doesn't) when I pushed Locate, it responded with a. Why would that work for you and not for me? I'm not doubting you, I'm just puzzled. But that surely can't be because your avformat-55.dll was in a folder you named FFMPeg, while mine was in a folder I named ffmpeg-win-2.2.2.


You've discovered that you can eliminate "negotiated to the ffmpeg-win-2.2.2 folder, selected avformat-55.dll, OK" by doing what exactly?Īfter I pushed Locate, I had to browse to my ffmpeg-win-2.2.2 folder, which is inside the same folder my other Audacity files are in. When you go tp Preferences > Libraries and click the Locate button it detects then automatically, you don't even need to go browsing for them.Okay. If you unzip ffmpeg-win-2,2,2.zip to the \App\FFMPeg sub-folder in the folder where Audacity is installed then it really is a breeze.
