Trying to install ffmpeg...

[yaomtc]

I've enabled rpmfusion and epel, but when I try to install ffmpeg, this happens:

Code: Select all

$ sudo dnf install ffmpeg
[sudo] password for chris: 
Repository 'amdgpu-pro-local' is missing name in configuration, using id.
Last metadata expiration check: 21:30:30 ago on Tue 10 Dec 2019 09:23:30 PM EST.
Error: 
 Problem: package ffmpeg-4.2.1-3.el8.x86_64 requires libavdevice.so.58()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
  - package ffmpeg-4.2.1-3.el8.x86_64 requires libavdevice.so.58(LIBAVDEVICE_58)(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed
  - conflicting requests
  - nothing provides libjack.so.0()(64bit) needed by libavdevice-4.2.1-3.el8.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Is ffmpeg not currently possible to install on CentOS 8 without compiling some software myself?

Enable epel-playground

jack-audio-connection-kit-1.9.12-8.epel8.playground.x86_64 : The Jack Audio Connection Kit

Thanks, that takes care of part of the problem, and now I see there's more dependencies not available:

Code: Select all

$ sudo dnf install ffmpeg

Do I need to enable epel-testing?

[TrevorH]

I have all 3 permanently enabled on my test el8 VM but I am not using it for anything other than poking at it to see how bad a .0 release it is...

If you're still having no joy, you can install a static version from here https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ or you could try the centos 7 version from epel-multimedia https://negativo17.org/repos/multimedia/epel-7/x86_64/
