Can't convert to MP4
I'm testing out Nuxeo 5.8 on a Ubuntu VM box, and all is well except conversion to MP4 (WebM works fine).
As soon as it tries to convert to MP4, it dies with “Transcoding Failed”.
Here's what I get in the server log:

I went as far as compiling FFMPEG from source, thinking that might be the issue.
After trying for a few days, I'm finally come here for help. I'm also a new to linux, so I'm probably doing something wrong?
Hi,
Unknown encoder 'libfaac'
Ubuntu does not supply FFmpeg with libfaac support. So you must compile FFmpeg from sources with --enable-libfaac option.
You can give a try to a custom script we've written:
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/nuxeo/ffmpeg-nuxeo
cd ffmpeg-nuxeo
sudo ./build-all.sh true
That script basically follows the instructions from the FFmpeg Compilation Guide for Ubuntu adding a few options like “--enable-libfaac” and “--enable-nonfree“.
I'm updating the related Nuxeo documentation (ADMINDOC/Installing+and+setting+up+related+software).
