Hi and welcome to the forum :slight_smile:
Is ffmpeg installed? And you have switched your system to the packman packages?

Hi
I was under the impression it should be down graded to the 2.8 version (??) I believe this happened for Tumbleweed…

Sounds like you might need to ask the packman folks direct on either IRC or their Mailing List;

Have a read here, check the ffmpeg codecs and encoders;

nevermind i switch to packman in yast and all working
