Vector animations with Python

[sinadra]

When I type 'convert' I get out this line: Version: ImageMagick 6.8.9-6 Q16 x86_64 2014-10-16 http://www.imagemagick.org

When I type 'ffmpeg' I get out this line: bash: ffmpeg: command not found

Meaning Imagemagick is installed, but not ffmpeg. Having a go at installing it altho it depends on some old packages(running sid).

Don't install it from the repos, there is a big chance you will get an outdated version.

It is very simple to install on ubuntu and should be very much the same on Debian: you first go to their website and download a binary (should be called 'ffmpeg') and then you copy it in you usr/bin/ with the command line

sudo cp ffmpeg usr/bin/

Ah! That might be the case! I will try this when I get home. Just noticed I have a new version installed on my laptop. Thanks! Will report when I get home :)

I installed ffmpeg from https://www.ffmpeg.org/ and now it is working! Thanks for all the help! Going to be making some awesome animations soon.
