As it say in the manual http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/fa ... tml#ffdown

However, Audacity will work with some FFmpeg versions later than 2.3 if Audacity is compiled with the option:

Code: Select all

--disable-dynamic-loading
if you have a unified diff against the current GitHub source, I'd be happy to pass it on to the developers, or you can yourself via the developers email list: http://audacityteam.org/contact/mailing-lists/
