How do you install avconv on Ubuntu Server 13.04?












34















I've searched and searched, but I can't find anything, besides compiling it, which gives me an error about ASM.

  • In the future, you should post the error as it usually compiles just fine after installing all dependencies. Although, the recommended method is apt-get.

      sudo apt-get install ffmpeg


      This will also install the libav-tools by default

        Unfortunately, those answer won't work on Bionic version because FFmpeg won't include the avahi libraries in the package. you will have to install libav-tools manually
        in order to get avconv_cli



        sudo apt install ffmpeg  #requirement to run avahi
        wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/348889634/libav-tools_3.4.1-1_all.deb
        sudo dpkg -i libav-tools_3.4.1-1_all.deb


        I'm adding this answer here because this topic looks like the only one discusses the avconv but the answers are not for the later versions of Ubuntu distro.
        But why would you if you could get the same result from ffmpeg.

        • Thanks, this was helpful. But to be clear, you still need to have ffmpeg installed before installing the deb above.

        • @JamesBradbury You are correct. because libav-tools depends on FFmpeg. It was for some people who were expecting FFmpeg includes libav-tools however, I should've been mentioned FFmpeg to be as clear as possible and error free. Thanks.
