It seems that the PPA jon-severinsson/ffmpeg has been set to restricted access.

I suggest that you try finding other sources (PPAs) for ffmpeg (and if needed for frei0r-plugins)

PPA candidates (for ffmpeg): https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=ffmpeg

and used (for ffmpeg):
https://www.faqforge.com/linux/how-to-install-ffmpeg-on-ubuntu-14-04/

please help me, how to remove this message:

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Open a terminal and issue the command

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

This will ask for your password as confirmation for an administrative action and will then open an editor with the sources.list configuration file loaded.

Locate the two lines that contain jon-severinsson/ffmpeg (probably near the end of the file) and delete these two lines.
Save the file and close the editor.
