[EN] Missing ffmpeg [solved]

[oneself]

Hi,

I need to install ffmpeg, but I cannot seem to find it.

Code: [Select]

# apt-file search ffmpeg | grep bin
bitpim: /usr/share/bitpim/helpers/ffmpeg.lbin
ffmpeg2theora: /usr/bin/ffmpeg2theora
ffmpegthumbnailer: /usr/bin/ffmpegthumbnailer
pfstools: /usr/bin/pfsoutffmpeg

Is this available somewhere?  There seem to be a few packages that might depend on it (e.g. winff).
But it seems to be missing.

Code: [Select]

apt-cache policy ffmpeg
ffmpeg:
  Installiert:           (keine)
  Installationskandidat: 7:2.4-2
  Versionstabelle:
     7:2.4-2 0
          1 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages

mmh - debian stable is the second alternative

Hi, thank you for your help.

There must be something wrong with my package sources.

Code: [Select]

$ apt-cache policy ffmpeg     
ffmpeg:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: (none)
  Version table:


Code: [Select]

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list
# debian loadbalancer
deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://http.debian.net/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free

Does this look correct?  Am I missing something?

Debian has replaced ffmpeg with avconv, which is in libav-tools.

first, like towo said, Debian replaced ffmpeg with avconv. Nothing is wrong except you need to install avconv instead of ffmpeg.
second, Debian is reconsidering to re-include ffmpeg, that's probably why it is in "experimental"
third, you don't see "experimental" cause it's not in your sources list.

Awesome, thank you very much for your help.
