 Extraction errors show the FFmpeg exit code and the end of its diagnostics, with private paths scrubbed. Use the final error line to distinguish missing audio streams, unsupported inputs, permissions, or disk errors. A version banner alone does not identify the cause; include the final diagnostic and source format when reporting a failure.
