FFmpeg Binary. Compiling current clone of FFMPEG on OS X 10.7 Lion | the mergy notes. Upgrading to OS X 10.7 (Lion) has really caused some issues for me. A big issue for me was not being able to easily grab the current clone of ffmpeg from the git repository. I was able to compile after doing the following. 1. Get your OS X 10.7 system current (as of now 10.7.1 is the latest and greatest) 2. Get Xcode from the App Store and there will be a software update on that (unless Apple has recently changed that.) 3. 4.

. # fink install pkgconfig as root or do it with sudo. 5. 6. . #. Then # make # make install 7. Hope this helps. MacOSXCompilationGuide – FFmpeg. Compiling on Mac OS X is as easy as any other *nix machine, there are just a few caveats.

Remaining Dependencies ¶ First, we need to install a few dependencies: Pkg-config & GLib ¶ Yasm ¶ FFmpeg: The ultimate Video and Audio Manipulation Tool. Chances are you’ve probably heard of FFmpeg already.

It’s a set of tools dedicated to decoding, encoding and transcoding video and audio. FFmpeg is based on the popular libavcodec and libavformat libraries that can be found in many other video conversion applications, like Handbrake. So why would you need FFmpeg? Got a video in an obscure format that every other player couldn’t recognize? This post is a follow-up on Video Conversion done right: Codecs and Software, where I discussed the various codecs and containers that you can find these days.

Now, let’s dive into the more practical aspects. FFmpeg is free and open source, and it’s cross-platform. Windows Compiling FFmpeg on Windows is not too easy.

Ffmpeg [] {[] -i ‘input_file’} ... {[] ‘output_file’} ... ffmpeg is a very fast video and audio converter that can also grab from a live audio/video source. It can also convert between arbitrary sample rates and resize video on the fly with a high quality polyphase filter. ffmpeg reads from an arbitrary number of input "files" (which can be regular files, pipes, network streams, grabbing devices, etc.), specified by the -i option, and writes to an arbitrary number of output "files", which are specified by a plain output filename.

Anything found on the command line which cannot be interpreted as an option is considered to be an output filename. Each input or output file can, in principle, contain any number of streams of different types (video/audio/subtitle/attachment/data). The allowed number and/or types of streams may be limited by the container format. To refer to input files in options, you must use their indices (0-based). The format option may be needed for raw input files. ‘p:[:]’
