we had a diferent version installed at the system level and i meant when you have convert to ogg set in the audio conversion settings for greater compatability for smart phones etc
but yea my suspicion is since we had a ffmpehg installed at the system level then used yup remove ffmpehg itsstill expecting the version previously installed/
or, theres conflicting dependencies
i need a way to clean it all up
and if i copied ffmpeg from 1 core version to the next overwritting the 1 in latest version that should solve any curruption
but i dont think that is exactly whats wrong
what should the jr version size be

steps to reproduce
for many months only music converted not vids
i had someone attempt to fix it fe installed ffmpeg we changed the config to use system ffmpeg which failed instantly
i removed system ffmpeg and config line it went back to using the jr provided 1 and again fails instantly with this error.additionaly
in the past music converted but vids would require resetting queue worker to even get it to start, then the queue worker had 100% of 1 core used for many minutes i used trace on the process and would end in sigkill without converting after a few minutes

i believe its a dependency conflict with a diferent version..but this wrong size errors brand new and that only started after attempting to use a system installed version, then going back to using jr

Repair Modules fixes jamroom module data in the database - it does not change things on your file system (and likely does not have permissions to change ownership on files).

ffmpeg is the main tool to convert media. Its what transforms videos into playable formats that work on the web. On jamroom hosting we offload the ffmpeg converstion to the cluster for processing, so no, you dont need ffmpeg on the server, but you do need it somewhere if your site uses videos.

There is a tool at
ACP -> MODULES -> DEVELOPER -> DEVELOPER TOOLS -> TOOLS -> REBASE MODULES

that will move the jrCore-version-6.0.7 back down to jrCore and delete all the other versions so you dont have any symlinks. (or old versions to revert to.)

ok so..should i do yum install ffmpeg again
i thought because i did that i might have had 2 conflicting versions with conflictimg dependencies.
from past discussions i thought only the 1 in jamroom core tools was needed with no extra depenencies added?
i want to be sure i got this right

Docs: "HowTo: Use a different FFMPEG binary"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/howto/4641/howto-use-a-different-ffmpeg-binary

You can define which one to use if your system has many. one comes packaged with jamroom.

i tried that after doing the yum install ffmpeg and it failed immediately
i want to use the 1 in jamroom..i believe right// but does there need to be anything instakled on the system as far as dependencies does ffmpeg need to be installed

if you read up a few posts you will see that its after i tried that then tried reverting it thats when i started getting the file size errors

i see
Warning! Do not run this rebase tool on a live Jamroom site!
This tool is designed for Jamroom Developers working with the Git version control system

are you sure i should try this on my live site?

No - you don't need to do any of that. You have 2 choices:

1) Figure out why the stock, JR provided ffmpeg is being corrupted when uploaded to your server. This has been happening to you for a long time, so I would recommend getting to the bottom if it. Maybe your hosting provider can help you with that.

2) install or compile your own custom version of ffmpeg (you'll need to include libfaac) and then update your Jamroom data/config/config.php file and override the core provided ffmpeg:

$_conf['jrCore_ffmpeg_binary'] = '/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg';

Use the correct path to your custom ffmpeg.

ok so the yum install won't work i have to compile a version with custom configuration parameters?
the weird part is the ffmpegs currupted whether its uploaded through ftp, though the marketplace, or copied from version folder to version folder, or site to site

think i got it!maybe you can figure this out? (i'll check with co hosting company to)
i uploaded ffmpeg through plesk filemanager

-rw-r--r-- 1 dreadlockssite psacln 15951292 Mar 18 20:54 ffmpeg

now the file size is correct
uploading by ft currupts it
i believe now that transfering by ftp from the marketplace currupts ffmpeg too and thats why core updates fail
is it an ftp or wget transfer sessiion used in marketplace updates?

if its ftp it is likely the ftp installed on my server thats the issue? in the past i had often had "unable to list directory contents' errors when trying to access ftp

i believe i now see that the core update and the ffmpeg issues maybe related (and now wonder if the poor database performance might be related)
