I am sure this is a simple problem, I can't figure it out.
I just installed (Avidemux_2.8.1 VC++ 64bits.exe) on my win 11 machine and when I try to upload a .mp3 file I get the following message:
"info: Cannot find a demuxer for .........mp3"
I have used avidemux on my win10 machine for several years and I thought this would be a slam-dunk to upload it to my new machine. I must be forgetting something.
When I go to "Help" - "Plugins" - "Demuxers" I don't find the 'Lame/mp3' demuxer, it is however present in the "Audio Encoders".
What am I missing?
Thanks for any help you can provide
avidemux - can't load mp3.jpg
Well - I feel foolish....
Avidemux is a video editor, not an audio editor, duh.... I know you can add audio to a video clip with avidemux but the demuxers won't demux just and audio file (a .mp3 file.)
I just installed 'Audacity' to my Win 11 machine and uploaded and edited the .mp3 file.
I am sorry to take up your forum time with this minor issue. Although it is minor, it unfortunately consumed me for over an hour.
1. Load a video
2. Add your mp3 file as an external audio track via "Audio" -> "Select Track" -> "Add file" in the drop-down menu for a track.
I would strongly recommend using the last known good 2.8.2 cross-compiled nightly build which is still r241212 from https://avidemux.org/nightly/win64/ rather than extremely outdated 2.8.1 release. Please make sure you install / extract a nightly to an empty directory and never run multiple Avidemux instances simultaneously.
