Note about ffmpeg
-----------------
ffmpeg is a central piece of forked-daapd and most other FLOSS multimedia
applications. The version of ffmpeg you use will potentially have a great
influence on your experience with forked-daapd.
The following versions of ffmpeg are supported and known to work:
- ffmpeg 0.5.x: has issues with metadata (tags) extraction, notably with
MP3 files and ID3 tags in general;
- ffmpeg 0.6.x: known to work better with regard to metadata extraction
