I upgraded to Ubuntu 24 LTS and noticed that FFMPEG 6 is the default version. I'm encountering the same issues with libopenshot not working with the default version. Current workaround is to manually build FFMPEG 4, then configure the paths and linkers.

However, this isn't really an ideal solution. Would be great to have this fixed. Thanks :D

I see the same error messages on Ubuntu 24.04 with the openshot packages shipped in Ubuntu 24.04: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libopenshot/+bug/2069763
