Reminder that peek is deprecated and unmaintained: #1191

It seems that the "peek" package supplied on Ubuntu 22.04 has stopped working out-of-the-box. Judging from the many similar issues opened, this probably affects several distros.

A workaround is to install ffmpeg and use that as a backend instead when launching peek, thanks to #1140 (comment)

# install ffmpeg
sudo apt install ffmpeg

# launch peek like this
peek -b ffmpeg
