The sort of program that once set up, just ticks along without fuss or bother forever.

For me, as I'm replacing the vms today which I set up five years ago and haven't needed to touch since;

  • HAProxy
  • KeepaliveD

Not easy to learn, but once they're running, they both go on forever.

I think ffmpeg imploded or something? And maybe VLC is maintaining their own fork? But it got split into a bunch of pieces or something, I don't know, but maybe installing one of the alternate sources of the ffmpeg packages might work for you.
