Now I have about a zillion choices, but only two are self-evidently of interest to me, i.e.:įfmpeg 7:3.0.2-1ubuntu1 in amd64 (Proposed)įfmpeg 7:3.0.2-1ubuntu1 in amd64 (Release) So then there is a blue link for 'ffmpeg'.

#Download ffmpeg deb package code

(I didn't know that source code was able to build anything, all on its own, but we'll pass that for now.) So anyway, scrolling down on the above page, I come to the heading 'Binary packages built by this source'. I am also not at all filled with confidence by seeing 'unstable urgency=medium'.Ĭan someone (anyone) please explain to me what THAT is all about? So where is the stuff for 16.04 that I came here seeking? Is the stuff for yakkety (16.10) at all likely to work on 16.04 (xenial)?

The problem is that I've already googled around for awhile and I'll be damned if what I found make any sense to me.

So I need to get a fresher ffmpeg installed on this 16.04 desktop system. I frankly don't remember anymore.)Īnyway, ffmpeg is crashing on me due to some bug that I already googled for and that, apparently, has been fixed in later versions for ffmpeg. (Please don't ask me exactly how I got this installed, or which repositories I used.

I have Ubuntu 16.04, and I've already installed a binary for ffmpeg 2.8.6-1ubuntu2.
