I'm trying to record video from a connected USB camera using ffmpeg on ubuntu.

When I input

ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 15 -s 800x600  -i /dev/video0 output.avi

i get the following error:

[mpeg4_v4l2m2m @ 0x4d79d0] mpeg4 profile not found

Similarly when i use

ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 15 -s 800x600  -i /dev/video0 output.mkv

i get

[h264_v4l2m2m @ 0x4c1ec0] h264 profile not found

I installed ffmpeg using apt install. Does ayone have a solution for this?

Got resolved when I uninstalled it and built from source using this guide
