It will indicate that it is using this executable by setting the stream.converter field to opt/bin/ffmpeg.

If this is not working for you, check that the ffmpeg file in MinimServer/opt/bin has execute permission for all users.

If you have checked this and it is still not working, please post a screenshot from File Station showing the contents of the MinimServer/opt/bin folder.

Execute rights were missing. I had to edit the permissions on the file and add Execute privileges to the file in DSM. Thank you for the help!
