I use following command to stream an online video link

ffmpeg -i "source link" -c copy -t 20 output.mkv

It worked well on my win10 PC, then a few days ago, I tried this on a new PC with Ubuntu installed,it returned following error

Error parsing AAC extradata, unable to determine samplerate

If I omit "-c copy" in the command, it worked on Ubuntu, but the output video is re-encoded which is not my requirement.

Does anybody know how to make Ubuntu do the same as win10?

The versions of FFmpeg are likely different. Try reinstalling identical versions on both OSes and run the command again.

Not only the versions may be different, but they may be compiled with different options and libraries

Thanks @pigeonburger, I checked my ffmpeg version on ubuntu, it was an old version(although I updated ffmpeg before use) since my ubuntu was not the latest, so I upgraded my ubuntu and updated ffmpeg again, the error disappeared
