To install it :
If you're using Ubuntu 14.04 :
ffmpeg was replaced in previous releases by the avconv program from the libav project.
To install avconv you need to install the libav-tools package:
sudo apt-get install libav-tools
Or use PPA :
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
If you're using Ubuntu 15.04 :
FFmpeg Returns To The Official Ubuntu Repositories With Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet.
Just type :
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

If i install it from the given ppa, will it be installed with all the codecs? – Arjon11 Oct 28 '15 at 16:48

@Arjon11, i'm not sure ! but if it doesn't work, you can take a look at MPlayer, or at How to install the transcoding tools on Ubuntu 14.04 – Bilal Oct 28 '15 at 21:20

1FYI: libav-tools alone does not work on ubuntu 14.04 but the ppa does work. – e_x_p Mar 22 '18 at 08:22
