Simplest workaround for this issue is to avoid the use of ffmpeg, and interestingly DeVeDe provides an option to do this.
Go to "Edit -> Preferences"
then uncheck "Use FFMPEG instead of Mencoder" as shown in the below image.

actually it's not ffmpeg at all. It's the fact that Debian/Ubuntu ruined av/multimedia by "forking" ffmpeg into their "libav" mess that it is now.
ReplyDelete"FFmpeg" is very much alive, in "Arch" for example, and used in many apps, and much more uptodate than Debian's crappy fork.
I left Debian/Ubuntu a couple years ago when they started doing crap like that.
