FFmpeg
Local audio format conversion. Required by several TTS / STT services.
FFmpeg provides local audio format conversion. Several TTS and STT services rely on it to convert between their internal audio formats and what Voxta's playback / capture pipeline expects.
Marked Required in the registry — installed automatically. You don't normally configure it.
On Linux, you may need to install ffmpeg system-wide and provide its path via ffmpeg.config.json at the Voxta root. See Install Voxta Server → Linux for the snippet.
Troubleshooting
If you see "ffmpeg not found" or audio conversion errors in the Terminal:
- On Windows, the FFmpeg module ships ffmpeg with Voxta. The error usually means a file got moved or quarantined by antivirus.
- On Linux, install ffmpeg via your package manager (
sudo apt install ffmpeg) and check theBinaryFoldersetting inffmpeg.config.json.
