In this video i cover installing ffmpeg 5 with the nixpkgs package manager on linux from scratch and also upgrading an existing install of ffmpeg with nixpkgs from version 4.4.1 to version 5
nixpkgs package manager for linux and mac can have multiple versions of a package installed, rollback your software to a previous version, no dependency hell and can also install all your software from a single text file
Note: if you are upgrading ffmpeg from 4.4.1 to ffmpeg version 5 with nixpkgs you may also need to run the following command to up date nixpkgs as well after installing ffmpeg 5
nix-env -u
nixpkgs install
