Your ffmpeg libraries are too new. There are fixes in the release-1.36 branch

[synthead]

If there are fixes available, can a new release be prioritized? As of this writing, the only way to use ZoneMinder with Arch (aside from Docker, etc.) is to use downgraded packages. It'd be great if this was seamless 🙂

1.36.35 has been released. Reopen if necessary.
