[Libav-user] filtering_audio.c example not working

[Ron Woods]

I have tried it on AVI or MOV input file as well -- same result; so, no, it doesn't seem to depend on input file.
I am using same filter technique in another context to transcode audio from input movie to WAV output file, and it works fine there.
Maybe it is something to do with the piping to ffplay that is not working right in Windows?

The example pipes the audio output via stdout to ffplay. I am using Visual Studio 2010 and the example successfully builds and runs but the result is clearly not the desired result. At the end of init_filters I added a call to avfilter_graph_dump() and it all looks correct and also the pipe to ffplay as in this trace:

This is fishy.

I just tried latest git and seems to work fine here (Linux). Does the problem depend on the input file?
