Hello,

Some pleople warned me, on my youtube channel, about an installation error :
Could someone change the "linux" download text ? Ffmpeg is in official depots from Ubuntu 16.04.
The PPA is not compatible with Ubuntu after 14.04 so your users end up stuck.
You should warn them and tell them, if they added the PPA, to do:
Code:
 sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:kirillshkrogalev/ffmpeg-next

The right command to install your PPA, update packages informations then install should be :
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:obsproject/obs-studio && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y obs-studio ffmpeg[code]

Thank you very much ! Keep up the good work ;-)

Why is the original command wrong then?

We specifically tell users that if they're not on 14.04 or older they should NOT add the ffmpeg-next ppa.
