# FFmpeg Encoder Availability Check
## Purpose
Before writing any FFmpeg encoding script, always probe the system for available encoders. This prevents failures from missing or incompatible codec libraries (especially libopenh264 which frequently has version mismatches).
## Core Pattern
### Step 1: Probe Available Encoders
Always run this command before deciding on encoding parameters:
```bash
ffmpeg -encoders | grep h264
