ZM 1.29 Ubuntu 14.04 missing ffmpeg

[mrd]

Is ffmpeg supposed to be installed as part of the zoneminder package? I think I had to install it after the fact on my previous version of ZM.

I could not get monitors with cURL to work and determined that this must be the reason.

No, 14.04 uses "avconv"

If I remember correctly ffmpeg is back in 15.10 and 16.04 (which will be released soon)

I was thinking that it might have been intended to be included in the ZM installation.
