Using Audacity 2.1.2, installed using the .exe.

Just wondering is it possible to make audacity read .flv files? I have a .flv file I want to extract the audio from to a .wav if possible.

If you haven't done so already, download and install the optional FFmpeg. I haven't tried FLV but FFmpeg allows you to open the audio from most audio/video formats and export most audio formats.
