Script can't find ffmpeg

[hellocatfood]

Thanks for making this tool!

I'm trying to use the script but when I run python3.9 FF\ Dissolve\ Glitch.py a window appears telling me to download ffmpeg.

I've checked and I definitely have ffmpeg installed (7:4.4-6ubuntu5) so it seems like it's not correctly detecting it on Linux. Any chance of making it compatible with Linux. For reference I'm using Ubuntu 21.10 with python 3.9.9.

Ok, please remove line 17 from the script and then try to run it again. The error message will not pop up.
Please let me know if it is working properly or not.

that didn't solve it unfortunately. Removing line 17 and running it again gave this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/User/FF-Dissolve-Glitch/Python Version/FF Dissolve Glitch.py", line 102, in <module>
    root.wm_iconbitmap(path)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/tkinter/__init__.py", line 2080, in wm_iconbitmap
    return self.tk.call('wm', 'iconbitmap', self._w, bitmap)

For you, I made another simplified script and tested it inside Ubuntu and it was working. Check here to see: Python Version/FF Dissolve Glitch simplified.py

Thanks for this! Just wondering though, isn't there a way to create a version that can find ffmpeg regardless of OS?

The issue is with the subprocess command. I forgot to add the shell=True line due to which it was unable to open the terminal.
In windows we don't need to specify the shell.
