Upgrade Docker container to FFmpeg 5.1?
I noticed that the latest Docker image is still bundled with FFmpeg 5.0.1. FFmpeg 5.1 was released on July 22 and includes a fix for the frustrating issue noted in https://github.com/alexta69/metube/issues/63. Is there any chance that the FFmpeg version in the Docker image could be updated to 5.1? Thanks!
@PikuZheng Hmm, maybe you're running an old version of the docker image? I just pulled the latest image today and it came with version 5.0.1.
try this modify if you really want (not official version https://github.com/alexta69/metube/commit/90eba5cd121aaac176aa9d23f32e02c4e03a86e4
You are right, I investigated that alpine-3.16 provides ffmpeg 5.0.1, alpine-edge provides ffmpeg 5.1. But the python official image only provides alpine stable, not edge. I found a static compilation of ffmpeg 5.1, but may be it's unstable
Thanks for the investigation. I'm going to try building an image with the Dockerfile changes from the commit you linked above.
That worked perfectly, and it fixed the error from https://github.com/alexta69/metube/issues/63! Thanks again.
Is there a way we can get these changes included in the MeTube image which is pushed to Docker Hub (so I don't need to build a new image every time MeTube changes)? Or do we need to wait for alpine to update their FFmpeg version?
Due to unstable builds, I tend to wait for official updates. You can fork this project and use the github action to automatically sync and build the docker image and push it to the private docker hub.
Fair enough. I'll probably just keep building the image locally until the official image from Docker Hub has FFmpeg 5.1 included.
