1 year ago Were you trying to build or run directly from source ? ffbin_nix directory is used only while building a binary distribution using 'build_linux.sh'. If you are running directly from source you can have ffmpeg in either your system PATH or 'bin/ffmpeg'
When I tried building from source, I noticed when following the directions within the readme that the location for the ffmpeg binaries did not work when using the ffbin_nix directory. What did work was placing the ffmpeg binaries in onthespot/bin/ffmpeg. This allowed the program to properly locate ffmpeg to download and convert without issues.
