Deb Multimedia Packages::Home

What's up doc ?

17/08/2007 :
I think you have noticed the Google Ads. I need that to pay the huge amount of bandwidth.

10/05/2012 :
New domain name deb-multimedia.org
You must edit your /etc/apt/sources.list to replaces the old repository name by the new one.

Little explanation about the domain name change, Debian asked me to stop using the word debian. You can read the DPL message here.

22/03/2019 :
Wheezy has been moved to https://archive.debian.org

02/05/2018 :
ffmpeg 4.0 packages are now in unstable.
A rebuild for most packages is required.
Packages should be moved to testing soon (less than a week).

17/06/2017 :
Repository updated for stretch. Enjoy.

If this repository is too slow for you, use a mirror.

After you have added the necessary line in /etc/apt/sources.list the first package to install is deb-multimedia-keyring.

apt-get update
The “-oAcquire::AllowInsecureRepositories=true” option is mandatory since Buster and thus also needed for unstable.
apt-get update -oAcquire::AllowInsecureRepositories=true
apt-get install deb-multimedia-keyring

Since Squeeze you can install this package with apt-aget. Simply press y when the package ask what to do (don't press return).

If apt-get can not find the new key, do that :

wget http://www.deb-multimedia.org/pool/main/d/deb-multimedia-keyring/deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb

You can verify the package integrity with : sha256sum deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb
9faa6f6cba80aeb69c9bac139b74a3d61596d4486e2458c2c65efe9e21ff3c7d deb-multimedia-keyring_2016.8.1_all.deb

Final and mandatory step.

An “apt-get update”
an “apt-get dist-upgrade” to install all packages related to ffmpeg.
