[Solved] Nextcloud video player, ffmpeg path issue?

Glad you got this working!

I’d be interested to know the /usr/bin/ folder path in the container as well. It might now be revealed with:

sudo updatedb
sudo locate -r /ffmpeg$
or just:
sudo locate -r /usr/bin$

Me too. Thanks for your help.

ken@fbox:~$ sudo updatedb
[sudo] password for ken:
ken@fbox:~$ sudo locate -r /ffmpeg$
/usr/bin/ffmpeg
/usr/share/ffmpeg
/usr/share/doc/ffmpeg
/usr/share/lintian/overrides/ffmpeg
/var/lib/nextcloud/custom_apps/recognize/node_modules/ffmpeg-static/ffmpeg
ken@fbox:~$ sudo locate -r /usr/bin$
/usr/bin
ken@fbox:~$

Well, unfortunately, there’s nothing new here. I was expecting some <default-container-pathing>/usr/bin/ffmpeg or something. However docker(podman)\nextcloud is creating its’ virtual filesystem, it’s not entirely visible from outside the container using tools outside the container.

I’m not surprised, but a little disheartened. More to learn.

Thanks Ken, I may get into the world of Nextcloud once I get a little more storage configured on my fbx.
