Is there an updated solution for avidemux on Ubuntu 16.04












1















I saw this answer - Guide me to a dependable subtitling software that also hard-codes subtitles, but the getdeb links seem to be broken or gone.



I also tried the appImage file for Linux here - Download Avidemux latest release, but it would not execute at all. (I did set the file properties to "executable".)



Also no results on Ubuntu package search.



So is there any currently available solution to run this on 16.04?

  • appimage files first have to be marked as executable before they will run. You can right click the file and go to properties, then permissions and check the box that says "Allow executing the file as a program". You can also do it in the terminal with just chmod u+x filename

  • @Gerowen Yes I did that but still no activity. Even iotop shows no disk activity when double-clicking from the desktop.

  • You could try executing it from the terminal to see if you get any kind of output; just run it like you would any other executable from the terminal: ./filename.AppImage

  • @Gerowen Then I get "bash: ./avidemux_2.7.1v2.appImage: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error".

You can install Avidemux on Ubuntu 16.04 as a flatpak package. Flatpak is a next-generation technology for building and distributing desktop applications on Linux that is supported in Ubuntu 18.04 and later. For earlier versions of Ubuntu flatpak support can be added from ppa:alexlarsson/flatpak.



To install Avidemux in Ubuntu 16.04, open the terminal and type:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexlarsson/flatpak 
sudo apt update
sudo apt install flatpak
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub org.avidemux.Avidemux
flatpak run org.avidemux.Avidemux


The last command is the command to start Avidemux from the terminal. Avidemux can also be launched by clicking on its icon in the Dash.
