How to install FFmpeg on Fedora Linux 33/34 using dnf

To install FFmpeg on Fedora Linux 33 or 34 using the dnf package manager, you can use the following steps:

  1. Enable the RPM Fusion repository:
    sudo dnf install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
    This enables the RPM Fusion repository, which contains packages that are not available in the default Fedora repositories.

  2. Update the package manager index:
    sudo dnf update

  3. Install FFmpeg:
    sudo dnf install ffmpeg
    This installs FFmpeg and all of its dependencies.

You can verify the installation by running the ffmpeg -version command, which should display the version of FFmpeg that you have installed.

FFmpeg is a powerful multimedia framework that includes a collection of libraries and utilities for handling audio, video, and other media files. It can be used to encode and decode various media formats, transcode media files, and perform various other media-related tasks.

Note: These steps assume that you are using Fedora Linux, which uses the dnf package manager. If you are using a different Linux distribution, you may need to use a different package manager or different commands to install FFmpeg.
