Dear Dan,

Ensure your ImageJ is subscribed to the FFMPEG update site[1]:
When I do it with Ubuntu 16.04 on a freshly downloaded Fiji installation, the following files are downloaded:
  * /plugins/FFMPEG_IO.jar
  * /lib/linux64/libffmpeg.so

The commands (implemented through FFMPEG_IO.jar) become available upon restart:
 * File > Import > Movie (FFMPEG)...
 * File > Save As > Movie (FFMPEG)..


Perhaps the files you mention (jars/ffmpeg.jar and jars/linux64/ffmpeg-linux-x86_64.jar) are from a different update site, or you have installed them manually? In either case, the Updater should be able to help you[2]
