I do _exactly_ what is shown in videos, but it still doesn't recognize the libraries. I tried to reinstall FFmpeg for Audacity, I installed it in the Program Files, in the Program Files (x86), and even in both folders at the same time... and Audacity doesn't recognize the libraries anyway, even though I did everything you've showed in the last part of the video. Why the hell doesn't it work as it should?
