I cannot see any audio.wav generated in the folder, which step I missed or done it wrong? Thanks
Edit: pass parameters into libvlc_new
const char * const vlc_args[] = {
"--sout",
"#transcode{acodec=s16l,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:std{access=file,mux=wav,dst=\"C:/my_path/clip_0002.wav\"}",
"C:/my_path/audio.wav"};
libvlc_instance_t *inst = libvlc_new(3, vlc_args);
std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(60));
libvlc_release(inst);
It give me output message
main libvlc debug: exiting
main libvlc debug: no exit handler
main libvlc debug: removing all interfaces

Don't know why the output file 'audio.wav' never generated in the folder
Found a solution, you need to play the media and open the file correctly, for simplicity I use "libvlc_media_new_path" in this example, if you are using "libvlc_media_new_location", remember to append "file:///" before the location and change to native separator.

You can convert video to audio by this solution too, problem is it will show the video when converting, finding a way to hide the video.
