looks like you have been using both DAG and NUX repos. NUX repos are more updated, so when yum looks for dependencies it gives those for CentOS 7, I'm sure that is the reason dependencies do not get installed.

If you disable NUX for a moment, and only use DAG for this purpose, I think the instructions mentioned here would work fine. I have tried them in CentOS 6 myself. https://chrisjean.com/install-ffmpeg-and-ffmpeg-php-on-centos-easily/

I hope that works for you.

I am trying to install ffmpeg on a CentOS 6.8 server and I am getting some errors relating to required libs. How do I install those missing libs? Where do I find them? What should I do to install FFMPEG?

Here are the errors:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Did you try both suggestions at the end of the errored yum command?

I have tried both of the suggestions but doesn't install ffmpeg

What does it do when you yum install --skip-broken ffmpeg?
TextNinja.Me Free SMS almost 8 years

it skips packages and ffmpeg doesn't get installed.

Big mistake : Seems you are trying to use CentOS 7 packages / a CentOS 7 repo for CentOS 6.8, which isn't possible.

It appears that the DAG yum mirror from that link is no longer active. Will search for another one and once I find it, will post it here.
