FFmpeg and net framework #140

Closed trimechee closed 1 year ago

trimechee commented 1 year ago

Hello, I wonder if we should use the classic FFmpeg or the special version of FFmpeg to avoid bugs? because there is a special builds of FFmpeg for yt-dlp to fix some bugs, it will be great if YouTua can add ann update automatically this special builds of FFmpeg to fix some bugs for example

[Fix AAC HLS streams being truncated mid stream]

[Fix for YouTube's VP9 encodes with non-monotonous DTS]

for net framework, I check the windows features and I see that I have net framework 4.8 advanced service, can we use this version or we must the NET Framework 4.7.2 version?

I'm not sure if I have net framework runtime , I recently updated windows 10 and I'm not sure if windows 10 includes runtime 4.7.2 by default ?

You can use either ffmpeg, it doesn't really matter unless the only patch within that build of ffmpeg is important to you. See the other issue about the framework compatibility.

Sould we put just ffmpeg.exe with Youtube-dl-gui or we should put the whole folder of FFmpeg ?
