FYI: (solved) Ubuntu 16.04LTS codec missing package needs to be installed to use ffmpeg

[Narcis Garcia]

kdenlive depends on: libmlt6
libmlt6 depends on:
libavcodec-ffmpeg56 | libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56

vlc depends on:
libavcodec-ffmpeg56 | libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56

libavcodec-extra depends on: libavcodec-ffmpeg-extra56

The best option for you can be to install libavcodec-extra
