FFmpeg Android Errors

Question

Ok so im making a kotlin android app and for file conversion from 3gp to wav i added the android ffmpeg library with implementation 'com.arthenica:mobile-ffmpeg-full:4.4' then i added this code to convert the files FFmpeg.execute("-i" + f2 +"/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.icompilecodewithnowarnings.ffmpegthing/files/Documents/recording.wav") for further context f2 is /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.icompilecodewithnowarnings.ffmpegthing/files/Documents/recording.3gp

The error log is to large to simply just fit here but heres some of it

Execution failed for task ':app:checkDebugAarMetadata'.
> Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:debugRuntimeClasspath'.
   > Could not find com.github.hiteshsondhi88.libffmpeg:FFmpegAndroid:0.3.2.

Caused by: org.gradle.internal.resolve.ModuleVersionNotFoundException: Could not find com.github.hiteshsondhi88.libffmpeg:FFmpegAndroid:0.3.2.

I tried to compile however the compiler immediatley rejected my app and refused to compile. I would have expected it to have immidiatley compiled into a apk.

EDIT:

Here is my build.gradle file

plugins {
    id 'com.android.application'
    id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android'
}

android {
    namespace 'com.icompilecodewithnowarnings.ffmpegthing'
    compileSdk 33

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.icompilecodewithnowarnings.ffmpegthing"
        minSdk 26
        targetSdk 33

        versionName "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
    }

        }
    }

Answer 1

The error is in the gradle file, Please remove below dependency from Gradle.Build

com.github.hiteshsondhi88.libffmpeg:FFmpegAndroid:x.x.x

No need to use above dependency because You have used,

implementation 'com.arthenica:mobile-ffmpeg-full:4.4'

Please try below command to convert from 3gp to wav

arrayListOf(
            "-i",
            "input path",
            "output path"
        )
