    $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media
    
  2. Resynchronize the package index files from their sources

    $ sudo apt-get update
    
  3. Check where will ffmpeg be installed

    $ apt-cache policy ffmpeg
    ffmpeg:
      Installed: (none)
      Candidate: 7:2.8.4+git1~trusty
      Version table:
         7:2.8.4+git1~trusty 0
