It also clearly says to use the most recent if you can, 3.x is

I have whatever the distribution provides. I have just looked and
found ffmpeg-4, will try that one.
Please stop using antique versions....
FFmpeg is currently on version 8.0, use that or at least any of the 7.x
series if you want support.
These ancient versions are often feature incomplete or even incompatible
for today's codecs. They don't get updated, only the occasional bugfix
(like correcting typo's in the documentation....)
Also because of the fact that from version 7.0 the api has changed,
breaking compatibility with older versions. Mostly since then, the speed
has greatly increased (because of the new multithreading abilities) and
support for modern codecs got a lot better.
