FFMPEG Install on ready nas 214
I want to install ffmpeg on my NAS.
Ran below command and able to install it
apt-get install ffmpeg
But I am getting error when trying to convert file. Mainly audio from AC to AC3.
It seems I need to recompile the ffmpeg with more codec support as per below article

Want to see if this is upto date and if I run this will break current OS. I am on 6.10.3

Do you mean AAC to AC3???
You shouldn't need to compile ffmpeg, you just need to add the appropriate codec libraries. I'd try this first: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/149091/how-to-add-aac-and-libx264-to-ffmpeg-installation
As you likely know, you don't need sudo. You likely do need to reconfigure ffmpeg to use the libraries (though you might try it first before you do that). You might not want to use his configure command as is, since you might want the features he is disabling.
Yes.. its aac. Will check the article.
For some reason when I type A AC it says "The message body contains a ac, which is not permitted in this community. Please remove this content before sending your post."

No idea why that is, but I will edit your reply to make sure there is no confusion.
