What does 'could not find ffmpeg or avconv' mean?

[dev...@crackingproductions.com]

Suggests missing codecs to me but aren't these part of the download? 

I just freshly downloaded v1.5.1 64 bit as I'm struggling to convert some WMV files using Sorenson and someone suggested this program - but not getting anywhere with it with ANY type of source file (let alone WMV)!  

Cheers.  DE

c

​ould not find ffmpegg means either the setting are not proper or ffmpegg is missing. 

if your using windows, select restore defaults in the edit menu​. Then go to the edit menu and preferences. Check the windows tab for ffmpeg. it should be something like "C:\program files\winff\ffmpeg.exe"

 If your using linux, try restore defaults. Then if that didn't work. Make sure ffmpegg is installed from your package manager

That worked a treat Matt - thanks a lot.  A great program where the 'pro' Sorenson utterly failed to deal with my nasty WMV!!!!  Thanks so much.  DE

Hi,

I had a similar issue with 1.5.4 64-bit on Win7 64-bit.

In the EDIT dialogue it said "C:\Program Files (x86)", although it should state "C:\Program Files\"

Hope it helps :)

Bye,
