Open Firefox, go to AVD Icon drop-down — Preferences — click on Browse button — navigate to a folder with ffmpeg file, select ffmpeg file, click button Open.

To be honest, I don't want to install a converter and I don't need him. I always download the file as it is, may it be mp4 or webm or flash, I don't care. Is this some kind of bug?

I'm trying to get the Firefox Extension 'Video Download Helper' (VDH) to convert and record videos. The suggested way of doing this is to install a precompiled version of libav called 'Convert Helper' from the. I'm not willing to do that for various reasons.¹ So I want to install libav on my Windows 7 (x64) system and point the addon to the right.exe/.dll/whatever it needs. There is an option to enter a 'converter path' manually in the settings, although it does not work for me - probably because I'm not entering the correct path. The entered path just disappears after I click on the 'Recheck converter' button.

(I'm not really sure if the corresponding field is even made for input. You can see a picture of the settings page in the 'Using conversion rules' section.) The question is: How do I install libav correctly? Libav provides Windows builds in the download section, but I don't know where to put the extracted files or how to make the Firefox addon recognize the installation. Do I just throw the.dlls and.exes in the System32 folder or probably somewhere in the system's $PATH variable? Is there any other way? Any ideas are much appreciated.

¹One of them is that they want me to pay for a completely free codec to avoid watermarks which is (a part of) why they appear on ( remark (3/29/2016): the until further notice). On Linux there's no problem whatsoever (see installation instructions for Linux). Another reason is the fact that I want to have some level of control about what's installed on my system and that 'ConverterHelper.exe' obviously is not just a compiled version of the libav codec. Solution Use a and extract it to some folder. I tried the same and discovered two problems with that: First, at least my version (5.3.1) of VDH seems only to look into Program Files ConvertHelper3 for the avconv.exe file, no matter what I enter for the path. Second, the watermarking is not in the downloaded codec, but a native feature of libav used by VDH to mark the result. So even if one exchanges the libav library, VDH still uses it to place the watermark.

To solve this issue you would need to recompile avconv with leaving out the watermark feature (best ignore it at command line) or put a filter program named avconv.exe which calls the real avconv.exe, but with arguments cleaned of the watermark command. Unfortunately, both solutions are quite a bit of work.
