I definitely did have USE_FFMPEG defined, but I get the mask and 
can import FFmpeg files now - maybe your extra includes in FFmpeg.h   
fixed it.

Detection of the library isn't right though. Prefs. report the library
as not found even though it's in the same folder as the Audacity
executable, and if I browse and set it and OK Preferences, then
re-open Preferences, the library is again "not found".
