Hey! I'm trying to make a discord bot using ffmpeg, and I'm trying to install ffmpeg-static but I'm having errors, does anyone have solution for this?

There's no way to meaningfully diagnose this without the error message.
Preferably in full.

We don't seem to have a ffmpeg-static package.
Where did you get the idea that we do?

slim meteor Jul 5, 2025, 12:26 PM

#

Huh?

hard oar Jul 5, 2025, 12:27 PM

#

No such package.

slim meteor Jul 5, 2025, 12:28 PM

#

oh.

#

well that's wierd.

#

Have you ever heard of such package?

Not in Termux.
The main reason we don't have a staticly linked build for ffmpeg (or most packages) is because that would be a huge package.

The ffmpeg package has over 40 dependencies.

Okay.

#

I could see if i could use my code without using ffmpeg-static.

#

If you're just running ffmpeg commands under the hood it shouldn't matter if it's statically or dynamically linked.

#

Yep, seems like i never needed such package. Thank you.

#

And code works. Thanks.
