IM static and ffmpeg update what about binary compatibility

Post by feelart »

Hi,

Under Win 7, I have installed ImageMagick-6.8.9-1-Q16-x64-static.exe

Now, inside IM folder there is ffmpeg.exe

As ffmpeg is daily updated for improving (almost) in matters of bugs, hardware support (for instance enabling SSE2) and codec support, I wonder if IM can't be linked to updated ffmpeg versions or does it break binary compatibility?

Does IM follow possible binary compatibility changes of ffmpeg and releases IM new version accordingly ??

Thanks
