 FFMPEG: how to install for Blender? - Blender Artists Forums
I know that if I download Blender tar.bz2 file manually as in going to the Blender official site and downloading it, It'll come with the ffmpeg support but I'm trying to get ffmpeg to work with the Blender I installed using Fedora Core 6's yum installer.
I am on debian and I just type 'apt-get install ffmpeg' and its installed - well actually since 'blender' depends on it it was installed automatically.
OTO, I already said I know that FFMPEG comes with the Blender if DOWNLOADED MANUALLY FROM BLENDER.ORG but I was wondering why it doesn't come with Blender if I installed it with yum (Linux software installer for Window boys).
