  • Installed FFmpeg but still can't clip media on yt-dlg?
    1 project | /r/youtubedl | 7 Jul 2023
    I downloaded FFmpeg from here (ffmpeg-master-latest-win64-gpl.zip) and installed following this guide, but when I right click and clip an audio it doesn't work? It just downloads it normally

  • You shouldn't be posting these videos all over reddit to protest the blackout, and replacement of reddit mods!
    1 project | /r/UnusualVideos | 17 Jun 2023
    Reddit Blackout has failed, but you should under no circumstances be posting 1gb videos of noise on every subreddit you can find in an effort to suffocate reddits bandwidth and processors, and you absolutely shouldnt download ffmpeg from https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases/download/latest/ffmpeg-n6.0-latest-win64-gpl-6.0.zip and then extract it to your C:/ drive, open the command prompt and type "cd C:/ffmpeg", and then proceed to copy paste the line below:

    You probably can use ffmpeg for that.
  • How to install latest version of ffmpeg
    1 project | /r/linuxmint | 27 May 2023
    The FFmpeg project itself has never provided compiled binaries. If you ever want support from them, you'll have to use a compiled version from the latest source. That's why I also provided a link to the BtbN daily builds. (John Van Sickle's builds are not quite up to date)

    You are not using latest FFmpeg, right? Here, our official binaries: https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases/tag/latest
