I am making a python-based software that actually uses my Window's ffmpeg version. But I am thinking about to make it crossplatform, so, I heard that youtube-dl uses ffmpeg, so I want to know what is the module that it uses. But also, searching I found these two ffmpeg python modules.

In other words, three questions:

  1. Does ffmpeg-python is system version independent?
  2. Does ffmpy is system version independent?
  3. What ffmpeg module does youtube-dl uses?

  • `youtube-dl` uses [its own wrapper](https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/master/youtube_dl/postprocessor/ffmpeg.py) around the native binary – MTCoster Dec 10 '18 at 09:17
  • @MTCoster oh then I was wrong. So I am looking for a ffmpeg module – SGarcia Dec 10 '18 at 09:18
  • Why not try it yourself? Write a quick test script for each package then run it on Windows and *nix – MTCoster Dec 10 '18 at 09:24
  • @MTCoster because I hace ffmpeg installed and configured on my computer (windows) If it is dependent I won’t know. Can you help me out checking it ? – SGarcia Dec 10 '18 at 09:25
  • Then spin up a VM/uninstall it temporarily/use another computer – MTCoster Dec 10 '18 at 09:26
  • @MTCoster I am going to try a VM! Thanks for the idea. If you have more, they will be welcome. – SGarcia Dec 10 '18 at 09:27
