If the perl program just uses the command line ffmpeg program, it is very likely that you can use ffmpeg4 or ffmpeg5 instead. Some command like options may have changed, of course, but a lot less than the ffmpeg libraries have changed. Those are generally pretty incompatible between major versions of ffmpeg. -Olaf. -- ___ Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert <rhialto/at/falu.nl> \X/ There is no AI. There is just someone else's work. --I. Rose
