Thanks in advance

can you execute ffmpeg at all? it's in the installation folder under lib folder.

ffmpeg.exe did not responding
the actual version of serviio is 1.7.1

in the version 1.7 of serviio the error was only:

[IndexedDiskCache] Region [thumbnails] Disk cache not shutdown properly, shutting down now.
[IndexedDiskCache] Region [subtitles] Disk cache not shutdown properly, shutting down now.
[IndexedDiskCache] Region [online_technical_metadata] Disk cache not shutdown properly, shutting down now.

the ffmpeg error is not present in the log

If FFMPEG didn't exist, you'd get an error message. Therefore, it was in that folder. When I ran that command on my computer, it took about 15 seconds before the results were shown. From your screenshot, nothing returned. I would suggest replacing the FFMPEG in the folder with another version. For Windows, you can download the latest version here: https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/

I always download the latest 64 bit version, rather than the 32 bit version that Serviio ships with. It seems to work a little better on my computers.

I have download last version of ffmpeg for windows 64bit and i have replaced the file in the folder.
the result is the same, ffmpeg do not start when is called in a command promt.

Server core removes some of the DLLs ffmpeg relies on. Copy these files from a full version of the matching server OS. If you have switched to a 64-bit ffmpeg, get the appropriate files from the standard system32 folder.

C:\windows\syswow64
msvfw32.dll
avicap32.dll

C:\windows\syswow64\en-us
avicap32.dll.mui
msvfw32.dll.mui

To my understanding, ffmpeg is a self-contained application that does not require any additional DLLs. There is no install procedure for ffmpeg, so there's no way for DLL files to be placed in the Windows folder. Now if you are referring to being able to build from the source code, then those files might be necessary. But not to use the ffmpeg.exe executable.
