I have a copy of FFMPEG that runs on my Raspberry Pi (Debian).

Q.) If I copy that single file from the Rpi3 to Merlin....will it run on Merlin?
If not, what (Linux version) of FFMPEG will run on Merlin?
Just using FFMPEG to make an occasional single JPG file from an existing video stream...
Thanks!

First question to ask is what Router are you looking to run it on? May make a difference as the Kernel versions vary widely between models.
 
Just looking at Enware packages, there is a ffmpeg package for Entware available. You could try installing that.

Which should work, as opposed to copying a binary from a completely different system.
