@John. No problem.
The ffmpeg devloper's argument doesn't seem too robust.
I'd guess the proposal rejection might not be set in stone.
If enough people reasoned with them they might change their minds.

I hope you don't think I'm rejecting VanillaMozilla's insights.
I'm just a user suffering from this issue too... see #13 above.
I agree '-show-banner' would be preferable.
Why don't you file a bug at the ffmpeg bug tracker requesting it?

@Veron: thank you. But, as with all workarounds, the users need to know

Apparently there is a built-in workaround for this in ffmpeg since 2013!
Simply use the '-hide_banner' option.

Please, I hope you DO fix it. I understand the reluctance to remove a
needed message, but I would hope the spuriousness could be removed.
Programs like ffmpeg and avconv are used simply because they are darned
useful. They often accomplish in seconds what front end apps can't do
at all.
Well, the warning is printed whenever you use a copy of the 'ffmpeg'
binary with a copy of libavcodec (or any other library provided by the
ffmpeg source package) that has been built with a different
configuration. Which is the whole point of the 'libavcodec-extra*'
packages: Enable additional

Title:
ffmpeg library configuration mismatch
To manage notifications
No, that's not it.
I'm on 16.10 clean install and I get the warning too.
I installed:
ffmpeg (version 7:3.0.5-0ubuntu0.16.10.1)
and
ubuntu-restricted-extras (version 65)
I don't have libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56 I have libavcodec-extra57
Example of the warning I get:
$ ffmpeg
ffmpeg version
That it, people needs to clean their system, purge package instead of
simple removal (to avoid old settings left behind) and glance at
wiki/howto/... to understand the difference between bugs.launchpad and
forum.
Closing again that useless report.
** Changed in: ffmpeg-extra (Ubuntu)
The solution is to remove libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56 package, which will
replace it with libavcodec-ffmpeg which stops the ffmpeg warning output.
sudo apt remove libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56

I get this, too. It *seems* to work fine anyway, but it sure looks
scary. And ffmpeg is already a ridiculously verbose program as it is
*without* spewing a full-page of incomprehensible gobbledegook on every
single invocation. ;-)

The problem is that ffmpeg is spewing nearly a page-full of spurious

Huh? I have no idea if there's any harm, but it sounds very much like a
broken program.
It may not seem important, but video editing software is riddled with
problems, and this adds to the already considerable noise. Among other
problems, ffmpeg failed to convert files from Ogg Theora, but the
