Hi, I'm using Audacity 2.0.1 and it does not accept webm files. I want to be able to use the audio of webm files, the same way I do with mp4 and flv files.
Thanks

Re: Taking the audio of webm files
Audacity does not support webm files. You will need to use another program to convert the webm files into a support format (such as WAV).

Re: Taking the audio of webm files
I would guess you are still using FFmpeg 0.5 which does not support WebM. Assuming you are on Windows or Mac, uprade to FFmpeg 0.6.2 from here http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/fa ... tml#ffdown which does support WebM.audiowebm wrote:Hi, I'm using Audacity 2.0.1 and it does not accept webm files.

Thank you, Gale Andrews. After installing the latest FFDshow (corrected: FFmpeg) for Audacity, I was able to work with webm files.

OK, I marked the topic as "Solved". I assume you mean FFmpeg, not ffdshow, though that also now supports WebM.audiowebm wrote:After installing the latest FFDshow for Audacity, I was able to work with webm files.
