Not sure how much of Chromium you can avoid building just to produce libffmpeg, but that's something to investigate. I suppose the best way (but probably a pain) would be to fetch the latest Chromium source of the major version you need, build it with proprietary codecs enabled and then grab the produced libffmpeg.so from it.
#Ffmpeg ubuntu 18 download
You just have to download a libffmpeg that supports everything to make the extra, proprietary codecs work. They build ffmpeg included in the Chromium source with proprietary codecs disabled for legal reasons. Which version of libffmpeg.so do the Opera developers use when they build and test their software?ĭo they download it from somewhere, or build it from source?
#Ffmpeg ubuntu 18 install
Surprised the one you downloaded for 70 didn't work.Īpparently, these said in FFMPEG installation instructions: Step 1 Install FFmpeg 3.x Step 2 Check FFmpeg Version Install FFmpeg 4.x on Ubuntu Step 1 Add the FFmpeg Unofficial PPA Step 2 Install FFmpeg 4.x Step 3 Check the FFmpeg Version FFmpeg Examples & Basic Commands 01. Neither of those 2 versions of seems to work (Opera was restarted, and I checked the process list after turning Opera off and on).īurnout426 Volunteer last edited by said in FFMPEG installation instructions:įrom what I can tell, I seem to have Chromium version 70 I tried extracting both the libffmpeg.so file from version 69 and from the version 71 (extracted from the Ubuntu repos with deb files):Ĭhromium-codecs-ffmpeg_.100-0ubuntu1_bĬhromium-codecs-ffmpeg_.98-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_b Īs for widevine installation, I'm not sure.Ī Former User last edited by A Former Userįrom what I can tell, I seem to have Chromium version 70:
When that happens, you repeat the steps and replace the libfmpeg.so in the lib_extra folder with the new one.Īs for where to find the right ffmpeg, try There are Vivaldi and Opera ones for Chromium 71 and Opera ones for Chromium 72. Then, you'll be good to go until Opera jumps to a new major version of Chromium. Find the file in a tar.gz file for example, extract it and put it in the lib_extra folder. Don't install any packages or anything, which might interfere with other programs.
Then, you can search for and find a libffmpeg.so that's built for that major version of Chromium.
#Ffmpeg ubuntu 18 update
Leave that one alone and let Opera update it when it needs to.įor what one you download, you have to goto the URL opera://about and take note of the Chromium major version. You're not supposed to replace the libffmpeg.so that's included with Opera. If you haven't created the "lib_extra" folder yet, you'll need to create it first. You put the libffmpeg.so you download at "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so".
