Just an update with my experience so far, in particular with ffmpeg. System: HP Microserver running Ubuntu Server 12.04, LMS 7.9.0
Originally installed: ffmpeg (using apt-get) - version 8.1x bpa's plugin bonze's menu.oplm As many have said, there was the problem of multiple copies of ffmpeg running as channels were changed, etc, etc Today: Downloaded the appropriate (32 or 64 bit) ffmpeg 2.5.4 static build from http://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ Unzipped it with 7-Zip Removed the existing installed version of ffmpeg using: - sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg (I had intended to use "purge" instead of "remove" but forgot) - sudo apt-get autoremove (to remove the packages which were installed along with ffmpeg) Copied the new static build of ffmpeg 2.5.4 to the /usr/bin/ folder. Restarted the Microserver. Result: everything now works fine, ffmpeg closes down properly and there are no multiple copies running. My heartfelt thanks to bpa, bonze and everyone else.
