RPM Packaging Notes ​

Distro Support ​

  • OpenSUSE ≤ 15.6 is not supported.
    • The package repository contains an older version of libavcodec (4.4.6). It's possible to build for it, but the distro EOLs in April 2026.
  • Mageia ≤ 8, EPEL ≤ 9 and OpenEuler ≤ 22.03 are not supported.
    • The package repositories are missing pkgconfig(libnautilus-extension-4).
  • CentOS Stream, RHEL, Fedora ELN, Amazon Linux are not supported.
    • The default package repositories do not contain the following FFmpeg libraries: pkgconfig(libavcodec), pkgconfig(libavformat), and pkgconfig(libavutil). These packages are available in RPMFusion, but Copr does not allow the use of RPMFusion due to licensing conflicts.

For info on package support across distros, see www.rpmfind.net.

Compatibility Notes ​

  • libnautilus-extension-4 ≥ 43. Older versions of Nautilus use an older, incompatible version of the extension library.
  • ffmpeg ≥ 6.1.1. The issue is that the ch_layout field in the AVCodecParameters struct was introduced in ffmpeg 6.0 to replace the deprecated channel_layout field. It's possible to build the extension to support older versions of ffmpeg, but this requirement should be based on user demand (which there is currently none).
