Hi,

sorry, most certainly asking in the wrong place, but it's related.

I run NC in a freebsd jail, manual installation, and want to add the media converter. I have installed ffmpeg via "pkg install ffmpeg" on cli as root and media converter doesn't find it. I've been searching for hours now, can't come up with any other search terms that could be related, but didn't find an answer anywhere:

How do I install ffmpeg so NC can use it? 

# ffmpeg
ffmpeg version 4.4.4 Copyright............
# su -m www ffmpeg
ffmpeg: No such file or directory.

So this tells me that the NC user doesn't have permission to access ffmpeg. The $PATH variable includes the default install folder, /usr/local/bin. What am I missing?

Thanks!

Hey @defilor - I don't have a good answer for you yet, without testing this setup.

Hoping to test with more environments soon, may uncover the issue there.
