did this fix this issue for those that also had it?

Audacity version 1.3 will import the audio from video files (including WMV) if you have downloaded and installed the ffmpeg import/export library. version 1.2 will not. The current release is 1.3.11, which you can get from here http://audacityteam.org/download and the directions ...

Great software thanks all. Same problems here. I tried many many things. I downloaded the latest audacity beta version 1.3.11b. . Re-downloaded ffmpeg for audacity.

... program to see the capabilities of it, and mainly for it's import/export feature, but I had trouble getting it going because it could not find any FFmpeg libraries (avformat-52.dll). I installed the 1.3.9, 1.3.10, 1.3.11b, and 1.3.12a versions with all the same result. I downloaded the LAME codec ...

... now I'm confused about which format is the better - Wma or Mp3 (or whatever) for what you might want to do with the music file.
