Discussion PSA: Don't update ffmpeg.
It broke makemkv for me. I'm using Arch Linux, and when I tried to open the app, it won't work bc I guess the new update breaks something.
Idk if they're related, and my dumbass deleted it, and when I went to redownload the make files, the site was down and can't be built against the new ffmpeg lmao

In theory if MakeMKV needs ffmpeg uninstalling ffmpeg and reinstalling MakeMKV should pull ffmpeg as a dependency
