Thank you,
That got me a bit further, Now it cannot find the taglib libraries ...
I have built the libraries (taglib.dll, taglib.a) (after almost 20 hours, what a mess) but have no clue where to put them so they are found!
I have tried adding them to a folder that is in the path, no luck.
What and Where does the 'cpan Audio::TagLib' install look for in relation to the taglib library components?

The Error:
