I am trying to read an audio file in Librosa but getting the following error
FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
It is mentioned that somewhere I need to install ffmpeg but it did not solve the problem. I have ffmpeg installed at ffmpeg in c:\programdata\anaconda3\lib\site-packages (1.4).
Here is an example code which I am using to read sample audio file
import librosa
filename = librosa.util.example_audio_file()
print(filename)
y, sr = librosa.load(filename)
It is throwing this error at line number 4
C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\librosa\util\example_data\Kevin_MacLeod_-_Vibe_Ace.ogg

I not sure what could be wrong here. Librosa and ffmpeg both are installed but not working at all. Let me know if you need more info.
