It's working perfectly on my side. Could you provide the steps to reproduce the issue?

[BNKdesigns]

1. install ffmpeg using apt
2. put the files in a folder
3. change the config to your details (server id, token and etc)
4. install bot using bun install
5. start bot using bun run start
6. play any file, doesn't matter if it's url or local

yep it works now. The possible problem was with nvm and the npm/node version. I upgraded node, started it, and now it works. Thank you. <3
