instal the new version for windows FFmpeg 6.1

Starting with ffmpeg-6.c71 from 04-05-2023 this is no longer the case.

My FFmpeg binaries are compiled with -enable-libfdk-aac, but they don't contain the actual code because of an incompatible license. In fact, it was literally my first encounter with Linux (Cygwin) Bash! But after my first attempts I forked Roger Pack's cross-compilation-script and the rest is history. With the help of a third-party cryptography-library (OpenSSL, GnuTLS, or MbedTLS) I could solve that issue. This was the main reason I wanted to see if I could compile my own FFmpeg binaries.

Windows XP doesn't support TLS 1.2 and the latest compatible FFmpeg binary back then couldn't open TLS 1.2 encrypted https-urls either, which a lot of websites started using. This all began end 2016 when (as far as I could tell) no one was willing to create WinXP- and old-CPU compatible FFmpeg binaries anymore.

On Zeranoe's forum I had a topic where once every 4 months I would post new FFmpeg binaries that are Windows XP compatible and will work on old CPUs without SSE2 instruction sets (like my own AMD Athlon XP 3200+).īecause Zeranoe took down his forum not so long ago I thought I'd create a topic here on Doom9 in the hope some of you might still find these binaries useful.
