Version information

• ffmpeg version: 7.0
• OS: MacOs 13.6.5 (22G621)

Code to reproduce

// Utility function to fetch all ffmpeg data
async function fetchFfmpegDetails() {
    const getFormats = () => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        ffmpeg.getAvailableFormats((err, formats) => err ? reject(err) : resolve(formats));
    });
    const getCodecs = () => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        ffmpeg.getAvailableCodecs((err, codecs) => err ? reject(err) : resolve(codecs));
    });
    const getEncoders = () => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        ffmpeg.getAvailableEncoders((err, encoders) => err ? reject(err) : resolve(encoders));
    });
    const getFilters = () => new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        ffmpeg.getAvailableFilters((err, filters) => err ? reject(err) : resolve(filters));
    });

    try {
        const [formats, codecs, encoders, filters] = await Promise.all([
            getFormats(), getCodecs(), getEncoders(), getFilters()
        ]);
        logger.debug(`Fetched ffmpeg details: ${Object.keys(formats).length} formats, ${Object.keys(codecs).length} codecs, ${Object.keys(encoders).length} encoders, ${Object.keys(filters).length} filters`);
        return { formats, codecs, encoders, filters };
    } catch (error) {
        throw error;
    }
}

Expected results

As with my successful queries with getAvailableCodecs, getAvailableEncoders, and getAvailableFilters(function, I expect getAvailableFormats to return records.

Observed results

No records are returned and no errors are thrown.

2024-04-20 21:02:10 debug: Fetched ffmpeg details: 0 formats, 598 codecs, 206 encoders, 447 filters

Note that ffmpeg -formats returns all the filters:

[jason-opus]

i think it's the same issue as: #1266
alternatively, you can use ffmpeg 6 as a workaround:
brew install ffmpeg@6

[MarianoFacundoArch]

Yes, you can directly install this package
#1266

node-fluent-ffmpeg-7 , and it will work out of the box. The issue is that ffmpeg changed its output patterns; we are trying to see if anybody here has permission to push a new version to the NPM package with the changes. In the meantime I made my changes available in the package fluent-ffmpeg-7 for anyone that needs it.
