[Fixed] Audacity: Path to FFMPeg is not preserved

Audacity changed to the new FFMpeg 2.2.2 library. The entry in the audacity.cfg is always reset to "...\\avformat-52.dll" whereas with release of Audacity 2.0.6 the new avformat-55.dll is used. the older one is not recognized anymore.

The entry in launcher.ini (line 56) has to be changed from

Value=%PAL:AppDir:DoubleBackslash%\\FFMpeg\\avformat-52.dll

to

Value=%PAL:AppDir:DoubleBackslash%\\FFMpeg\\avformat-55.dll

This can also be used as workaround until an updated build is released.

Fixed in Rev 2

This is fixed in 2.0.6 Rev 2. You'll need to manually select it once and then the path will update. Better to remove it than keep up with a silly DLL that changes its filename with every version.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
