This is where it tells you it is explicitly looking for libavformat.so.58Īnd then you need to deselect the file option of only "libavformat.so" and pick the "Dynamically linked libraries (*.so.*)" optionĪnd then pick libavformat.so.58.45 (which is a link to the full library libavformat.so.58.45.100)Īnd then you will find your wav files (and possibly other formats that had stopped working?) will load. You have LAME export Library, or FFMpeg import /export library and then choose the Locate button Http://In this short video tutorial, I demonstrate how to install the ffmpeg libraries, to permit importing various formats into Audacity.Ht. I found this after removing my above soft link, and then restarting Audacity gave a blurb that said it couldn't find it's FFMpeg Library, and you need to go to Preferences to set it When you have finished downloading, double-click the 'ffmpeg64bitosx.pkg' in your Downloads folder.

In the 64-bit FFmpeg section, left-click the link 'ffmpeg64bitosx.pkg' and save the file anywhere on your computer.

Sudo ln -s libavformat.so.58.45.100 libavformat.so.58There is a point and click way to achieve this by tying Audacity to the specific libavformat.so.58.45.100 library Left-click this link, do not right-click.
