ffmpeg not detected #59

Description

@ssabug

Hello,

First thank you for sharing this project, it is very handy.

Ive encountered issues with spiritstream (archlinux, appimage versions, all since 1.0.0) concerning the detection of ffmpeg system binary.

The ffmpeg bin in system files is present and functional , accessible to non root users but i cannot found it using the spiritstream file dialog.
When i enter manually the path in the text area, the green tick appears but no version is shown below. And of course nvidia hw encoder is then not available in the encoders section of the app.

I use ffmpeg 8.1, i had same problem with previous version, it has worked on an all outdated arch system, probably with a ffmpeg 2 major versions below.

Ive browsed the code to look for the way the program tries to locate / validate the ffmpeg binary, but with no success

Thank you for any help
