I am using the Mediatomb upnp server on my bubba. I read from several websites that I can install ffmpeg + ffmpegthumbnailer to allow Mediatomb to generate thumbnails for video files.
ffthumbnailer can be found here: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/mai ... humbnailer
However I cannot seem to get ffmpegthumbnailer install due to many missing dependancies:
Code: Select all
apt-get install ffmpegthumbnailer
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

E: Broken packages
I had absolutely no problem installing ffmpeg. So why is ffmpegthumbnailers giving me so much trouble?
I am very green to linux, so be gentle.

Any help is appreciated![*]
