### Windows [windows]
Download the **latest** FFmpeg build from <http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/>.
In your `.minecraft` folder, create a `ffmpeg` folder. Extract the downloaded .zip file into this folder. The FFmpeg executable should end up at `.minecraft\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe`.
Extract the downloaded .zip file into your `.minecraft` folder.
Historically the exact location inside the `.minecraft` folder was important, this is no longer the case.
It is sufficient for the `ffmpeg.exe` to be anywhere inside your `.minecraft` folder.
**Notes for alternative launchers**
- Twitch launcher by default installs Minecraft instances in C:\\Users\\*username*\\Twitch\\Minecraft\\Instances\\*instancename*\\
- GD Launcher by default installs Minecraft instances in C:\\Users\\*username*\\AppData\\Roaming\\gdlauncher_next\\instances\\*instancename*\\
- MultiMC by default installs Minecraft instances in C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MultiMC\\instances\\*Instancename*\\.minecraft\\
For these launchers, make sure FFmpeg exists in `instancename\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe` (Twitch / GD) or `Instancename\.minecraft\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe` (MultiMC)
For these launchers, make sure FFmpeg exists inside the corresponding folder.
### Mac OSX [mac]
On OSX, you can install **FFmpeg** with **[Homebrew](http://brew.sh/)** using `brew install ffmpeg`.
