[RFC] warning when multiple FFMPEG detected

Open feederbox826 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Add a warning message when multiple ffmpeg binaries are detected

### Scope

On startup, warn if multiple ffmpeg binaries are present, which might cause conflicts or incompatibilities

Long Form

Multiple users are coming in to the discord with errors with transcoding, old versions etc... This all mostly comes down to, and is fixed by removing their local ffmpeg which can become outdated, doesn't have support etc... and letting the system ffmpeg do it's job. In the case of https://github.com/nerethos/docker-stash and https://github.com/feederbox826/stash-s6, this usually results in failing transcodes since the local old ffmpeg without hwaccel support is used
