Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, FFmpeg is a popular multimedia framework, that enables the users to easily ncode, transcode, mux, demux, stream, filter and play audio and video content. The latest version avaiable is FFmpeg 2.2.2 “Muybridge”, which has been recently released. For information about this release, see the announcement on the official site.
In this article I will show you how to install FFmpeg 2.2.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Elementary OS 0.3 Isis and Pinguy OS 14.04.
Because it will be available via PPA soon, installing FFmpeg 2.2.2 on the listed Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Elementary OS and Pinguy OS systems is easy. All you have to do is add the needed ppa to your system, update the local repository index and install the ffmpeg package. Like this:
