Conversion sits at 0% with ffmpeg error

[Rooks103]

Seeing issues when I'm trying to convert a video. Download seems to work fine, but soon

Uncaught Error: ffmpeg exited with code 126 at ChildProcess.<anonymous> (/Users/mattpeterson/code/youtube-to-mp3/node_modules/fluent-ffmpeg/lib/processor.js:182) at emitTwo (events.js:125) at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:213) at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:200)

Two things that might be contributing, but I can't track down whether either is an issue. First, when I run the webpack command, I never see that command complete, but not sure if that is supposed to finish. Second, when I run the app, I see the message Electron could not be found. No hard resets for you! Again, not sure if that's a problem or not as the app starts.

Running this on macOS 10.14.1.

Thanks for reporting this! I haven't had a chance to look into this repo much lately, but if I get some time I will.

Okay, so I had a chance to look into this today. I'm really not sure what's going wrong, but it has to do with the ffmpeg binaries. This issue seems related.

I tried installing ffmpeg directly on my machine with brew install ffmpeg to get the binary in my PATH, but it was still throwing the same error. Maybe we can look at how this repository is doing this? They list ffmpeg as a requirement first, so maybe that's what will need to change here.

osx, got no error, but conversion frozen at 0%, mp4 downloaded to /Downloads, also when running yum build it goes to webpack watch mode, no finish

@valichek I'm also getting the same issue.

For what it's worth, I switched to using a program "Any Video Converter" in order to get some of the mp3s. Doesn't help with this problem, but might give some other folks a workaround.
