Subsonic Forum

Is there a recommended version from Zeranoe of ffmpeg that works best? I have a new install of subsonic with tomcat on a whs2011 and use isub at wok on my iPhone and need to transcode. The most recent version will not work, however I did download an earlier 64 bit static build and it seems to work fine but I have not seen a suggestion of the latest build that works best. Any thoughts?

Pretty much trial and error. I use 3 different versions depending on what I'm doing, one for video, one for ogg transcoding and I usually have the most recent version for general use.

These are old versions for Windows that always seem to work for me when the newer ones fail. Don't ask me why, I just tinker around until I find things that work. I do know that the most recent ffmpeg has started dropping audio in the Android app so I use the Videoffmpeg for that and it fixed that problem. I use the Audioffmpeg for transcoding to ogg for mobil use to maintain quality at more efficient bandwidth useage; great for when you're stuck with a crappy 3g signal.

HTH

Thanks Gary! I appreciate your help and link to files. I will give these a try tonight.
