Downloading ffprobe and ffmpeg failed
I got a new computer and I'm trying to set up the migaku-anki add-on but when I open Anki it sends this message: "Downloading ffprobe failed"
"Downloading ffmpeg failed"
I'm using:
Version 25.02.5 (29192d15) of Anki.
Version 1.23.5 of Migaku extension.
Migaku Anki - 0.3.36.
Is this because the Migaku extension doesn't work with the latest version of Anki?

@Hunta @Animal You guys can try searching ffmpeg in the discord, there are people who reported it before and I imagine the solution would be in one of the older posts 👍🏻

@Animal I got it to work by following steps from a discussion I found when searching "ffmpeg" in the discord channel. So you check if you have ffmpeg installed by entering "which ffmpeg" into terminal. My computer said it wasn't even there so I meant I needed to download it. So first I downloaded homebrew: https://brew.sh/ go to this website and follow the install instructions. I watched a youtube tutorial to make sure I was doing it right. Then I did into terminal: "brew install ffmpeg". After that I ran each of these four commands one by one in terminal. rm ~/Library/Application\ Support/MigakuShared/ffmpeg
rm ~/Library/Application\ Support/MigakuShared/ffprobe
ln -s $(which ffmpeg) ~/Library/Application\ Support/MigakuShared/ffmpeg
ln -s $(which ffprobe) ~/Library/Application\ Support/MigakuShared/ffprobe And now everything works correctly.

Please follow along by reading through the "No Image Making Into Anki" question discord, starting here. You need homebrew installed to run "brew" commands.
