Hello @blackPantherOS Sorry for the delay on our response and thank you for reporting this to us. We are not using ffmpeg 5.0 yet however another MEGA user has sent us a patch that should fix the building problem with ffmpeg 5.0 (however it has not yet been tested from our side): https://github.com/meganz/sdk/pull/2614/files

Thanks again for reporting this. It will be fixed in future releases.

I understand but all distro switched to 5.x.x already, We will check this patch in our build, thank you @voc-mega !

Any update on this? It's been a year.

Fedora 39 is already on ffmpeg 6.0. This issue seems to prevent updating various runtimes for the flatpak as per https://github.com/flathub/nz.mega.MEGAsync/pull/27
