 ==== Prerequisites ====
-  * Java<code>sudo apt-get install default-jre</code>
+  * Java
-  * FFmpeg<code>sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-53 libavformat-extra-53</code>
+    You need Java version 8 or later.  To find out what version you have type:<code>java -version</code>
-  * dcraw for digital pictures<code>sudo apt-get install dcraw</code>
+Confusingly you are looking for a version of 1.8 or later.  If you don't have this then you will need to install it.  There are more ways of installing Java on your system than I want to articulate here, but if you just want Serviio to work then the following is a good solution:<code>sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
+sudo apt-get update
+sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer</code>
+  * FFmpeg
+<code>sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libavcodec-extra-53 libavformat-extra-53</code>
+<note tip>FFmpeg is [[https://askubuntu.com/questions/432542/is-ffmpeg-missing-from-the-official-repositories-in-14-04|replaced]] by avconv</note>
+  * workaround for missing FFmpeg
+<code>sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media</code>
+<code>sudo apt-get update</code>
+<code>sudo apt-get install ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg</code>
+  * dcraw for digital pictures
+<code>sudo apt-get install dcraw</code>
