Which Version Of Ffmpeg Should I Download

I have FFMPEG installed on 2 different servers. On one of the servers, i run into an issue every time i try to convert m4v files where ffmpeg just processes the file indefinitely. When I take the same source file and try to run it on the other server it seems to work just fine. Both servers are running the same version of GNU/Linux. Some one suggested i check to see if the same version of ffmpeg is installed on the servers, so my question to you all is, "how do i check my ffmpeg version?"

Approximately every 6 months the FFmpeg project makes a new major release. Between major releases point releases will appear that add important bug fixes but no new features. Note that these releases are intended for distributors and system integrators. Users that wish to compile from source themselves are strongly encouraged to consider using the development branch (see above), this is the only version on which FFmpeg developers actively work. The release branches only cherry pick selected changes from the development branch, which therefore receives much more and much faster bug fixes such as additional features and security patches.

2.8.22 was released on 2023-10-29. It is the latest stable FFmpeg release from the 2.8 release branch, which was cut from master on 2015-09-05. Amongst lots of other changes, it includes all changes from ffmpeg-mt, libav master of 2015-08-28, libav 11 as of 2015-08-28.

The thing is: I'm preparing some quite important project so I thought that maybe I should use any newer version because that could mean "better quality of the output" and "do the same things faster" (plus maybe some new options / solutions). Unfortunately, this could bring also some bugs / problems to my working table.

That brings the question: is there any "newer than mine" version of FFmpeg that is generally considered as "the most safe" as of today? I know that FFmpeg has many "main" versions but even these have some problems which were fixed "later". Or maybe I should still stick to my version?

I'm trying to use FFMediaToolkit library which uses FFmpeg.AutoGen.And I encountered an error Invalid data found when processing input when calling ffmpeg.avformat_open_input this line. I tried run in windows & ubuntu using the latest version ffmpeg, it works fine.

But when I run in Nvidia Jetson, it throws error. I tried to figure out the issue and MABYE it is because of the mismatch version of installed ffmpeg and FFmpeg.AutoGen. But somehow, I can't update the ffmpeg in jetson.

libavcodec.so.57.107.100 corresponds with FFmpeg 3.4.8 (as shown by FFmpeg Download) which is from 2017-10. If you can't update your FFmpeg then use FFmpeg.AutoGen from commit f1fa4ed: Update to 3.4. Unfortunately, you'll be missing out on 3.5 years of FFmpeg development.

What's the safest way to update it? Ideally, there's a PPA that will work, that my googling hasn't surfaced. Or, should I be downloading that ffmpeg_4.3.2-0+deb11u2ubuntu1_amd64.deb file and installing it with dpkg?

I'm always paranoid about side-channel installing anything, especially when it involves anything to do with Video. What's the best "won't break future system APT updates" way to install the current stable ffmpeg?

There is a snap package for ffmpeg. The current version in the "stable" channel is 4.3.1 but does not list --enable-zimg in its build configuration as printed with -version, so it might not work. However, the "edge" channel of that snap package contains a version based on ffmpeg 4.4 with --enable-zimg. So installing would be as easy as

First we will download the latest gpl static build from one of the official builders BtbN. Then we will extract the file in the /usr/local/ffmpeg and create Symbolic Links to the binaries into the /usr/bin directory.

I know that your artwork is not an animation.

The purpose of Rendering that animation .kra file was to see if your ffmpeg is working correctly. It seems that it is. Now we can try to solve the problem of the timelapse.

The libavformat library can now read and write IAMF (Immersive Audio) files. The ffmpeg CLI tool can configure IAMF structure with the new -stream_group option. IAMF support was written by James Almer.

Thanks to a major refactoring of the ffmpeg command-line tool, all the major components of the transcoding pipeline (demuxers, decoders, filters, encodes, muxers) now run in parallel. This should improve throughput and CPU utilization, decrease latency, and open the way to other exciting new features.

Internally, we have had a number of changes too. The FFT, MDCT, DCT and DST implementation used for codecs and filters has been fully replaced with the faster libavutil/tx (full article about it coming soon). This also led to a reduction in the the size of the compiled binary, which can be noticeable in small builds. There was a very large reduction in the total amount of allocations being done on each frame throughout video decoders, reducing overhead. RISC-V optimizations for many parts of our DSP code have been merged, with mainly the large decoders being left. There was an effort to improve the correctness of timestamps and frame durations of each packet, increasing the accurracy of variable frame rate video.

A new major release, FFmpeg 6.0 "Von Neumann", is now available for download. This release has many new encoders and decoders, filters, ffmpeg CLI tool improvements, and also, changes the way releases are done. All major releases will now bump the version of the ABI. We plan to have a new major release each year. Another release-specific change is that deprecated APIs will be removed after 3 releases, upon the next major bump. This means that releases will be done more often and will be more organized.

New decoders featured are Bonk, RKA, Radiance, SC-4, APAC, VQC, WavArc and a few ADPCM formats. QSV and NVenc now support AV1 encoding. The FFmpeg CLI (we usually reffer to it as ffmpeg.c to avoid confusion) has speed-up improvements due to threading, as well as statistics options, and the ability to pass option values for filters from a file. There are quite a few new audio and video filters, such as adrc, showcwt, backgroundkey and ssim360, with a few hardware ones too. Finally, the release features many behind-the-scenes changes, including a new FFT and MDCT implementation used in codecs (expect a blog post about this soon), numerous bugfixes, better ICC profile handling and colorspace signalling improvement, introduction of a number of RISC-V vector and scalar assembly optimized routines, and a few new improved APIs, which can be viewed in the doc/APIchanges file in our tree. A few submitted features, such as the Vulkan improvements and more FFT optimizations will be in the next minor release, 6.1, which we plan to release soon, in line with our new release schedule. Some highlights are:

Stanislav Dolganov designed and implemented experimental support for motion estimation and compensation in the lossless FFV1 codec. The design and implementation is based on the snow video codec, which uses OBMC. Stanislav's work proved that significant compression gains can be achieved with inter frame compression. FFmpeg welcomes Stanislav to continue working beyond this proof of concept and bring its advances into the official FFV1 specification within the IETF.

Davinder Singh investigated existing motion estimation and interpolation approaches from the available literature and previous work by our own: Michael Niedermayer, and implemented filters based on this research. These filters allow motion interpolating frame rate conversion to be applied to a video, for example, to create a slow motion effect or change the frame rate while smoothly interpolating the video along the motion vectors. There's still work to be done to call these filters 'finished', which is rather hard all things considered, but we are looking optimistically at their future.

After thorough deliberation, we're announcing that we're about to drop the ffserver program from the project starting with the next release. ffserver has been a problematic program to maintain due to its use of internal APIs, which complicated the recent cleanups to the libavformat library, and block further cleanups and improvements which are desired by API users and will be easier to maintain. Furthermore the program has been hard for users to deploy and run due to reliability issues, lack of knowledgable people to help and confusing configuration file syntax. Current users and members of the community are invited to write a replacement program to fill the same niche that ffserver did using the new APIs and to contact us so we may point users to test and contribute to its development.

MediaHub Ltd. is a Bulgarian IPTV platform and services provider which uses FFmpeg heavily since it started operating a year ago. "Donating to help keep FFmpeg online is our way of giving back to the community" .

The next part of the project was to extend the code to be able to accept several clients, simultaneously or consecutively. Since libavformat did not have an API for that kind of task, it was necessary to design one. This part was mostly completed before the midterm and applied shortly afterwards. Since the ffmpeg command-line tool is not ready to serve several clients, the test ground for that new API is an example program serving hard-coded content.

The main challenge here is that Timed Text handles formatting in a very different way from most common subtitle formats. It uses a binary encoding (based on mp4 boxes, naturally) and stores information separately from the text itself. This requires additional work to track which parts of the text formatting applies to, and explicitly dealing with overlapping formatting (which other formats support but Timed Text does not) so it requires breaking the overlapping sections into separate non-overlapping ones with different formatting. 006ab0faaa
