<div dir="ltr">Ok, i'm back here.<div><br></div><div>This week i updated a code from a video recorder based on QtAv and ffmpeg running under CentOs, in my office. The machine capture video from endoscope in the reactor and save streams to MP4 (and also publish video on the intranet).</div><div><br></div><div>The core use ffmpeg. Under Centos, it's a big pain to install the last version of ffmpeg without to recompile all code + all shared libs for the codec.</div><div><br></div><div>So i tried the precompiled ffmpeg listed in previous mail, and, it do not work as ffmpeg is not a static version but use external dependencies not available under Centos.</div><div><br></div><div>As DK AppImage is compiled under Centos for binary compatibility, i cannot use this way to provide the last ffmpeg 4.1.0 with DK.
