Ffmpeg download

Post by Robin_Cartwright » Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:26 pm

I have tried to download ffmpeg, but all the links on the wiki are broken and the site doesn't open, and other downloads I tried didn't work. Anyone got a good link/can update the wiki to reflect how it should be? Thanks.

Here's the link to the download page: https://lame.buanzo.org/#lamewindl
(I've just tested and the page is working).

Scroll a short way down the page to the text link "ffmpeg-win-2.2.2.exe" and left click on the link to start the download.
(I've also tested that link, and it is working)

I try the link and get an error saying the page can't be reached, it took too long to respond. I would post a picture, but it was too large.

I've tested from UK, Germany and US. The links are working from all three locations, so the problem is not at the website end.
Perhaps try again tomorrow.

I first tried this a few months ago, this isn't going to fix overnight; there is a fundamental error somewhere.

Windows diagnostics states that the site is online but non respondent to connection attempts. Not sure why this would happen, but it's obviously not returning my requests for access
