The FFmpeg build script provides an easy way to build a static ffmpeg on OSX and Linux with non-free codecs included.
Youtube: How-To build and install FFmpeg on OSX
- x264: H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC)
- x265: H.265 Video Codec
- fdk_aac: Fraunhofer FDK AAC Codec
- xvidcore: MPEG-4 video coding standard
- webm: WebM is a video file format
- mp3: MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 Audio Layer III
- ogg: Free, open container format
- vorbis: Lossy audio compression format
- theora: Free lossy video compression format
ffmpeg-build-script is rockstable. Every commit runs against Linux and OSX with https://travis-ci.org just to make sure everything works as expected.
- XCode 5.x or greater
- Debian >= Wheezy, Ubuntu => Trusty, other Distros might work too
- build-essentials installed:
# Debian and Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install build-essential curl
# Fedora
sudo dnf install @development-tools
Open your command line and run (needs curl to be installed):
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/markus-perl/ffmpeg-build-script/master/web-install.sh?v1)
This command downloads the build script and automatically starts the build process.
