ffmpeg 4.1 is meant to be ABI compatible with 4.0, so you should be able to replace the 4.0 libraries and anything linking to them should still work without the need to be recompiled. Now, "work just like with 4.0.x" is impossible to guarantee because there were like five months of development between the two releases, and some modules may behave slightly differently. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
