Hi all, As far as I remember the packman repository should now contain libav AND ffmpeg. Unfortunately I can not find the package for ffmpeg. The only packages containing "ffmpeg" are the - ffmpegthumbnailer - ffmprg2theora and - gstreamer -0_10-ffmpeg
Am I looking for the wrong string or has the package name changed? I really want to switch back and can't find the package.
