macOS: Monterey 12.4
Audacity: 3.1.3 64-bit
FFmpeg: downloaded from https://lame.buanzo.org/ffmpeg_64bit_osx.pkg and installed to /Library/Application Support/audacity/libs
Following are the steps I am using:
- Open FLAC file 01 Logo, Main Title.flac
- File > Export > Export Audio…
- Configure the Save dialog as follows:
Save As: 01 Logo, Main Title.m4a
File Type: external program
Command: “/Library/Application Support/audacity/libs/ffmpeg_codecs.55.64bit.dylib” -i - -acodec alac “%f”
Show output: enabled
After clicking Save, the following appears:
“/Library/Application Support/audacity/libs/ffmpeg_codecs.55.64bit.dylib” -i - -acodec alac “/Users/scottkandel/Downloads/01 Logo, Main Title.m4a”
/Library/Application Support/audacity/libs/ffmpeg_codecs.55.64bit.dylib: /Library/Application Support/audacity/libs/ffmpeg_codecs.55.64bit.dylib: cannot execute binary file
If I modify the Command to “/Library/Application Support/audacity/libs” -i - -acodec alac “%f” the following appears:
“/Library/Application Support/audacity/libs” -i - -acodec alac “/Users/scottkandel/Downloads/01 Logo, Main Title.m4a”
execvp(/Library/Application Support/audacity/libs, -i, -, -acodec, alac, /Users/scottkandel/Downloads/01 Logo, Main Title.m4a) failed with error 13!
What am I doing incorrect?
Any assistance would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
