During further research I have come across this post - https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/0c13bd1a-388f-48cf-a190-7259d39a080f/ffmpeg-doesnt-work-from-inside-a-container-but-works-on-the-host?forum=windowscontainers
Which suggests that ffmpeg.exe can run only if two dlls - avicap32.dll and msvfw32.dll are present on your windows machine, they'll generally be in System32 folder. I copied these two from working box to windows docker container where these files weren't present, and ffmpeg started working after that. Has anyone come across this dependency to run ffmpeg.exe in past ? I thought ffmpeg static binary wouldn't need anything else to run itself. Thanks. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
