Could you or your company sponsor an x86-64 server and hosting for FFmpeg’s CI? RISC-V, PowerPC or MIPS systems would also be welcome! We currently test these using QEMU on our Ampere ARM server. Please get in touch!

Thanks for the generous FFmpeg CI offers! We're in touch with several of you and aim to accept at least one cloud and one server offer, plus non-x86 hardware for native testing. Nothing is finalized yet. If you've offered help, please check your DMs or message us!

Linus Torvalds to the anti-AI crowd: stop using compilers if you want to prove they’re REAL programmers. LOL. “you had better not use an editor to write that commit message either. The kind of expectations *I* have is that people do their best and I expect people to understand what they are doing. But that understanding has very little to do with what tools they use. And quite honestly, in my experience, the people I respect and call intelligent are not the ones that shy away from using new and interesting tools.”

Linus Torvalds says, rules prohibiting AI usage are “UTTERLY STUPID” and “idiotic”. For the Linux kernel, Torvalds says, “we’re not going to make stupid rules that say ‘you can’t use tools for X’”.

How can FFmpeg developers participate remotely in the FFmpeg meeting organized by Jean-Baptiste Kempf at VDD 2026? It’s happening now. Is there a link to join?
