Troubleshooting

Audio Conversion Issues

• ffmpeg not found: Install ffmpeg using your system's package manager

• Duration warnings: Check if your audio files meet the length requirements

Build Issues

• Android toolchain issues: Run flutter doctor and follow the suggestions
• Build failures: Run flutter clean and try building again

Common Commands

# Check Flutter installation
flutter doctor

# Clean Flutter project
flutter clean && flutter pub get

# Run app in debug mode
flutter run

# Check connected devices
flutter devices
