  ### Answer by username_1 on 2019-05-23. Score: 1 | Accepted answer
  
  The following Linux command searches all `codecs` than can `E`ncode anything containing `ut`.
  
  ```
    ffmpeg -codecs | grep --regexp="^ .E" | grep --ignore-case ut
  
  ```
  
  and its output is:
  
  ```
   DEVI.S utvideo              Ut Video
  
  ```
  
  so you can use:
  
  ```
  ffmpeg -i ~/Videos/WebCam/me.mp4 -c:v utvideo -r 30 -c:a libmp3lame -b:a 512K /tmp/test.mkv
  
  ```
  
  ### However:
  
  ```
  ffmpeg -codecs | grep --regexp="^ .E" | grep --ignore-case magic
  
  ```
  
  has no output at all ***on my version of ffmpeg***, but if your version supports it, you *will see an output* and then you just use whatever is in the second column as per the example above for `utvideo`.
