Using "which ffmpeg" show the ffmpeg I am using is in /usr/bin my PATH variable value is : /home/jim/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/snap/bin so includes /usr/bin . "apt-list ffmpeg" shows the version 7 package is installed /jammy-apps-security,now 7:4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1+esm5 amd64 [installed] I'm still thinking that "ffmpeg -version" which shows : ffmpeg version 4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1+esm5 Copyright (c) 2000-2021 the FFmpeg developers is dropping the 7 . It seems like quite a coincidence that the version shown ie. 4.4.2 is the last 3 numbers of version 7 package? _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
