Note about libav (ffmpeg)
-------------------------
libav (ffmpeg) is a central piece of forked-daapd and most other FLOSS
libav (or ffmpeg) is a central piece of forked-daapd and most other FLOSS
multimedia applications. The version of libav you use will potentially have a
great influence on your experience with forked-daapd.
forked-daapd supports older versions of libav and ffmpeg, but for libav 0.8.x
is known to be working. If you use a new version of libav or ffmpeg you may
encounter issues with MP3 files with embedded artwork, as forked-daapd may
classify them as video files.
forked-daapd is known to be working with libav 0.8.x, but it also supports older
versions of libav and ffmpeg. Versions of libav/ffmpeg newer than 0.8.x/0.11.x
do not work well with forked-daapd.
