Describe The Bug:

I can no longer get streaming audio/video for any camera plugins in Homebridge, running on intel Mac OS Monterey. Thus I'd like to clear any instances of ffmpeg for home bridge, and reinstall it, but I can't find it's storage location etc. I tried using the terminal commands provided for Mac OS, assuming it would just overwrite itself, but it just output "100%" but nothing about installation completed, etc. Tried to look through the readMe but no luck.

ffmpeg output:

Awesome, thank you so much! Still have no cameras working on this machine, but if I set up a brand new Homebridge on a different Mac OS machine, same network, everything is fine...but at least the issue doesn't seem to be with ffmpeg. :)
