Ffmpeg ubuntu

You should specify which version of Ubuntu you are using (Desktop [LXDE, XFCE, KDE, Mate, Unity], which processor type [32-bit, ia64, 64-bit and so on] and which edition you are using [12.04, 14.04, 16.04 or other]) to enable the answers you are presented to be more accurately directed at your needs.If you have ubuntu restricted extras installed you should also have ffmpeg [and here is where the edition of Ubuntu is important because gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg does not exist for 16.04] installed as well as libavcodec54 libav-tools, ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, libavcodec-extra-53, libavcodec-extra-54 and/or others to ensure you have full coverage for (nearly) all audio and video file types you should follow and install the list of codecs and apps presented by Arch Linux (I am only linking to Arch Linux because I have not been able to discover a Ubuntu page which covers as much and Arch Linux covers things exceptionally well on the following page) - if you are only concerned with AAC and have already installed Ubuntu-Restricted-Extras (as you stated you had) then I strongly suggest installing Clementine which does play AAC so long as the codec is installed (and for you it is because you made clear that you have already installed Ubuntu restricted extras). So, sudo apt-get install clementine and you will be able to play AAC files using that application.Apart from installing clementine if you must use VLC then you need to install a few more packages. sudo apt-get install libavcodec-extra libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56 libavcodec-ffmpeg56 libavutil-ffmpeg54Once installed, open VLC and

I have Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS installed on by Dell with firefox 68.0.2 (64-bit). ubuntu-restricted-extras is installed and several option in the about:config are enabled for mp4. A few days ago MP4 did work on firefox. After some updated from Ubuntu, it stopped working. I reinstalled ubuntu-restricted-extras abd firefox (options about:config enabled after reinstall). Also note the VLC is installed and can play MP4 files. report for video codecs:MP4 with H.264 support: NoMP4 with H.265 support: NoTS with H.264 support: NoTS with H.265 support: NoWebM with VP8 support: YesWebM with VP9 support: YesDoes anyone know how to fix this, or know how to let firefox log why it can't play mp4 (and where to find those logs). asked Sep 3, 2019 at 8:36 4 For ubuntu 20.04, run:apt install libavcodec58 answered Oct 13, 2021 at 14:59 IvanMIvanM2111 silver badge4 bronze badges 2 After a while resting it, I decided to try again. First post says again to install ffmpeg package. Instead of trying installing it by apt, I tried ffmpeg -version. This showed me an error that libva.so.1 was not found. libva.so.2 was available. Making a symbolic link named libva.so.1 (to libva.so) and doing this for couple other libraries worked for me. answered Sep 14, 2019 at 16:31 DavidDavid811 gold badge1 silver badge4 bronze badges This was the issue that came up when I was looking for solutions to why firefox was not playing mp4s.@michals comment on the question above led me to the solution I needed: answered Apr 23, 2020 at 23:39 Firefox and other browsers use ffmpeg to play videos. The stock ffmpeg cannot play h264 content. I had to recompile ffmpeg with h264 capability. I got the sources for the same versions already installed and enabled shared libraries. Once all the libraries were upgraded, all videos played fine.

If you are having trouble with videos on the web that are not flash, it is probably a video that uses the H.264 codec. In the past chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra has resolved this (and might again) Unfortunately, Opera has some issues with using the library sometimes, because it's so tightly integrated with chromium. There is no 100% good solution of getting H.264 support in Opera right now.Basically Opera is having trouble with the licensing. The library that provides many codecs that Opera uses is called ffmpeg. However, they have removed the H.264 part of it, because even though ffmpeg has a free license, the patent pool of H.264 will demand license fees from commercial projects that are using implementations of it, like Opera.Chromium and Chrome, however, do have support for H.264 in their ffmpeg library, because Google has payed the license fee.Switching to Google Chrome or perhaps Chromium is highly likely to resolve this issue entirely.(it did for me on both Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.04 - 64-bit) The only other option I can suggest even trying is the installation of the Ubuntu Resticted Extras Package Available in the [multiverse repository] which is defined as Unsupported, Closed-Source and Patent-Encumbered Software:For more on the multiverse repository and how and whether to enable it see this excellent Q & ASources: the difference between multiverse, universe, restricted and main?

I use multiple tools that rely on ffmpeg, a couple of which have downloaded different versions of ffmpeg from the one provided in the package repositories (e.g., mpv and moviepy via imageio). The separate ffmpeg binaries for these programs have not interfered with each other, but I am having difficulties related to some inconsistencies between the different versions.My question is: how do I locate the different versions of ffmpeg (other than the ubuntu package) that exist on my system so that I can point everything toward the binary of the most current version (in my case, the ffmpeg running with mpv)? Thanks! asked Dec 30, 2018 at 0:57 1 Experimenting a bit more, I was able to locate the alternate ffmpeg binaries installed by other programs using locate and egrep:locate mpv | egrep 'ffmpeg$'locate imageio | egrep 'ffmpeg$'And then use alias to redirect the ffmpeg command to the most up-to-date binary without breaking other dependencies. answered Dec 30, 2018 at 1:20 2 There are two commands you can use to determine which binary is in use and also if there is more than one ffmpeg installed.First, to determine which binary is currently in use, run the following command:which ffmpegNext, you can show where ffmpeg files and binaries are by running the following command:whereis ffmpegThe whereis command should show where the different binaries are if there is more than one and the binaries are usually under a bin directory. answered Dec 30, 2018 at 1:39 mchidmchid44.7k8 gold badges100 silver badges159 bronze badges 5 You must log in to answer this question.
