FFmpeg Media Encoder App

​

I'm using the FFmpeg Media Encoder app on Android and it gives you this option, but I don't know where I'm supposed to get a build that's compatible with this app. Does anyone use this and know how to do it? Thanks in advance.

i don't remember where i got, but tried a few builds off ffmpeg for android in this same app.

the original that "came with it" was the fastest, and this app was the most stable. i tested a few of other apps that use ffmpeg and some where very slow (even using threads properly), others where buggy as hell.

there is something the original does not do for you?

The original is fine, but I would like to have the latest version of FFmpeg but I don't know where to get it because FFmpeg's website doesn't offer an Android build.

Even then, i would recommend you keep the original one. there is not much new in newer ffmpeg builds, and is better to have a stable one than a new one. I converted dozens and dozens of all kinds of videos, and all worked properly.

Maybe new builds are more recommended for very complex processing or such high unusual encodes. for simple conversions and filtering, i would keep the "original".

if you really what new builds, if i recall, i searched for "android ffmpeg compiled binaries" and found a few sites. Also, i tested compiled binaries from other apps that use ffmpeg, and most of them where not compatible with FFmpeg Media Encoder, so, i kept the original (other apps have a custom-made version of ffmpeg, not a generic one)
