I am seeing the same thing and the ENV variable suggestion is also not working - and I think that is related to the two open PRs here.
This started happening today. At the same time the scheduled tests started to fail
This is happening in our environment too.
I can download https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/builds/ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz without any issues. I wonder how to resolve this? Can we help? How?
Same here, started to fail today. Moving the buildpack to the top or bottom of the buildpack list did not help either. Setting FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL is not helping, since it is somehow not picked up by the deployment.
I filed a ticket at heroku support. Will keep you in loop, if there is a suggestion from them.
In the meantime i downloaded the binary from https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/builds/ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz and added it to my repository. I then deployed the app to Heroku and it is working. Just make sure you call the correct PATH to the binary in your code.
@yusjacobs
Just make sure you call the correct PATH to the binary in your code.
Did you simply put this file in public directory and then use:
FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL
to download it? (In open PR-s I see that this doesn't work for some people)
I created a bin folder in my repo and placed the binaries in there, both ffmpeg and ffmprobe. You can download both here: https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/builds/ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz
I then updated my commands like this:
command = ["./bin/ffmpeg", "-ss",.....
Same issue on my end

We need someone with an enterprise account so they can escalate it quickly and not wait for two days for their reply 😭
Looked a little deeper into the issue. There seems to be a SSL TLS issue, when the heroku machine curls the tar.xz file, resultung in a status code 000, which is interpreted as error by the buildpack. However, when moving the archive to a different location, the buildpack works flawlessly again.
I forked the original buildpack and adjusted the url to a copy of the archive on my servers. Problem solved, deployment is working again.
If anyone wants to have a look on my workaround fork in order to build their own: https://github.com/agieche/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest
You can use it for now as drop in replacement of the current non working build pack until things have been sorted out:
heroku buildpacks:add --index 1 https://github.com/agieche/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest.git
Keep in mind, that I will remove the file in a resaonable amount of time after the original url is working again due to a future fix of heroku.
Thanks @agieche. To clarify, 1) your diagnosis is that johnvansickle.com SSL cert is causing the problem and 2) your fork is only pointing to a different remote URL where an SSL issue is not present, correct?
The thing that I am still not seeing function correctly is the FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL
env variable. It seems that if I am correct in both of those points, we should not need a new fork of the package, merely a successful path to use FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL
to point to a new remote URL.

I tried using the env variable at first, but I could not find an obvious way to access the Heroku env vars from within the shell script. Otherwise, this fork would be unnecessary.
I don't think, it is an issue at the end of https://www.johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ since curling it from my local machine is working with a correct 200 status code. Seems more of an issue in the local networking of heroku, but I'm not a 100% on this.
Checked my forked buildpack on two different production apps and deployments went fine.
Just fixed it for my production app as well. Appreciate the quick hotfix @agieche
I added support for reading the ENV variables within my fork thanks to this PR: https://github.com/jonathanong/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest/pull/61/files
I set the ENV variable FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL and restarted dynos and the variable was picked up correctly.

Did you have success setting this variable in the Heroku App (heroku config ...
etc) or the app.json
"env" key, or both?

I added the code to my fork. Then set the env variable within web interface (https://dashboard.heroku.com/apps/my-app-16815/settings) and deployed from CLI. Then, the Env variable was picked up correctly.

Awesome. Thanks!
I've taken a different approach to resolving this. Instead of using the precompiled binaries from johnvansickle.com, I've moved to using the official Ubuntu apt package.
This can be done by:
ffmpeg
With the Apt buildpack, when I re-deploy then try to run ffmpeg -version
in the heroku shell, I receive an error with the messageerror while loading shared libraries...
. The deploy also results in a much larger slug size (~250MB with no other buildpacks installed)
Another alternative buildpack is the heroku-buildpack-activestorage-preview which also installs the ffmpeg binary.
heroku buildpacks:add -i 1 https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-activestorage-preview
This buildpack also seems to fix the segfault issue on heroku-22 stack (https://github.com/jonathanong/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest/issues/69)
Thanks @agieche, I added you as a collaborator. I don't use this build pack anymore. If Heroku wants to own this package, let me know!
Merged #61, so you can set a correct download url via env variable now. No definitive answer from heroku, but they are looking into it.
@agieche What value should the env variable FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL in heroku client should take? many thanks!

Just add a new env variable in heroku->setting FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL : https://cookycookstaging.s3.amazonaws.com/ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz
and redeploy. Before redeploying I also restarted the dynos, but I guess that it is not necessary.
This solution is not safe. Do not use it for enterprises and banks.
@kayvaninvemo is it safe to use this bucket? it looks very suspicious to me

Its a personal bucket by me. Feel free to upload the archive on your own space and point the env variable to your personal url. This makes it more robust. For the time being, you may use my copy, since Im planning to keep it up until things have been sorted out by heroku support.

Hey, thanks! In the mean time I tried to use @dzuelke recommendation of using heroku active storage buildpack (https://github.com/jonathanong/heroku-buildpack-ffmpeg-latest/pull/72)
I have tested in production and it works.

It is not safe, do not use it if it is for an enterprise or a bank. :D
Hi! We have had the same problem in our project. Thanks to those who are sharing their valuable solutions!
BTW, I did some tests to download the file via curl
(using options similar to this buildpack) and on a few times it failed for 2 different reasons:
$ curl "https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/builds/ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz" -L --fail --retry 5 --retry-max-time 15 -o ./ffmpeg.tar.xz

Any update on this? Is this for Heroku to fix?
As a quick work around for hosting the ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz file, I copied the file into my development public folder, started ngrok and set the Heroku config var FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL
to the secure ngrok link to the file.
Got a response by heroku. Seems to be something, that the remote site could fix.
It seems that the issue you're encountering is related to a connection error when trying to retrieve the file from the specified URL. The error message "OpenSSL SSL_connect: Connection reset by peer" indicates a connection reset from the remote server (johnvansickle.com) during the SSL handshake.
This type of error is typically caused by issues on the remote server's end, rather than something you can fix from your side. It could be due to temporary server problems, network issues, or misconfigurations on their part.
To troubleshoot, you might want to:
Double-check the URL to ensure it's correct. Confirm that the remote server is up and running. Attempt the download from a different network or location to see if the issue persists. If the problem persists, reaching out to the website's administrator or support might be the best course of action to get more information about the issue and any potential fixes.
This issue is not related to Heroku.
The server's TLS handling seems broken (or there is otherwise some other issue with the server) - local requests fail too depending on the client used, for example this is what I get using curl locally on macOS:
$ curl -v https://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/builds/ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz -O

Ultimately I think this buildpack is not a great fit for production workloads, since:
I'd recommend that people either:
FFMPEG_DOWNLOAD_URL
Thanks @edmorley for the very detailed explanation 🙏🏻
Looks like it's working again!
If you are using this in production, I would definitely store the binary in my own file storage. you don't want to rely on third party services like this. When I was using this repo, I was using it at an early stage start up.
thanks for the help @agieche, let me know if you can help @edmorley. please email me if any issues come up because I don't code nowadays
