Hi all,
first of all I'm on Sabayon Linux (a Gentoo derivative with its own package management system)
After the latest upgrade yesterday, WinFF stopped working that is extracting the audio track from video files which it nicely before. The error message is "Cannot find FFPlay"
Searching for a solution only got me threads in Ubuntu forums where people unsuccessfully compiled ffmpeg from source
All packages related to
ffmpeg are installed. Still neither ffmpeg nor ffplay can be found on my system.

The configuration file ~/.winff/cfg.xml tells me that WinFF is looking for /usr/bin/ffmpeg and /usr/bin/ffplay to do its jobs.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<CONFIG>
<unix ffmpeg="/usr/bin/ffmpeg" ffplay="/usr/bin/ffplay" terminal="/usr/bin/gnome-terminal" termoptions="-x"/>
<general pause="true" playsound="true" addfilesfolder="/home/pascal/Downloads/Youtube-Downloads/" currentpreset="MP3" showoptions="false" pass2="false"/>
<window height="977" width="1920" top="27" left="0"/>
</CONFIG>
Well, these files do not exist (anymore?) since the upgrade. A reinstallation of the ffmpeg did not solve the issue.
Could anyone help me out here?
