Solution:
The default base-image in that template is ghcr.io/ublue-os/silverblue-main:latest, so yes it already has distrobox and ffmpeg.

Also just fyi: The ublue-os/image-template doesn't come with blue-build, that's just a containerfile. If you want to use blue-build (what this discord server is about), check out the docs https://blue-build.org/learn/getting-started/
BlueBuild
Getting started
BlueBuild is a collection of tools and documentation for making custom images of image-based Linux distributions.

Yes, because toolbx system is separated from the OS so you just need to add negativo to toolbx manually
