    Cannot install ffmpeg

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
    Output:
    Code:
    Package ffmpeg is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source
    
    E: Package 'ffmpeg' has no installation candidate
    Lubuntu 14.04, Firefox 40.0

    ffmpeg is not in 14.04's repo. It was replaced by a fork called avconv. But it comes back in 15.04

    To install ffmpeg in 14.04 use either https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archi...u/trusty-media (ffmpeg static) or https://launchpad.net/~mc3man/+archive/ubuntu/testing6 (ffmpeg shared)
