Just days after the release of the FFmpeg 3.2.3 maintenance update, the open-source multimedia framework received another point release, versioned 3.2.4, which appears to be a small one patching a handful of issues.

FFmpeg 3.2.4 is the fourth update to the FFMpeg 3.2 "Hypatia" stable series, and it's here to address a total of five reported bugs, including the clearing of ref_counts on redundant slices for h264_slice, a heap allocation wrap in both mov_read_uuid and mov_read_hdlr, a logic error pictordec, and setup of codecpar in add_codec().

The new version also includes the libavutil 55.34.100, libavcodec 57.64.101, libavformat 57.56.100, libavdevice 57.1.100, libavfilter 6.65.100, libavresample 3.1.0, libswscale 4.2.100, libswresample 2.3.100, and libpostproc 54.1.100 library versions. As usual, you should check out the full Git changelog for all the technical details about the changes.

FFmpeg 3.2.4 is now available for download for Linux-based operating systems from our website, but it's just the source tarball, which you'll need to compile. Binary packages for various supported GNU/Linux distributions, as well as for macOS and Microsoft Windows OSes, can be found on the project's website. Please update as soon as possible!
