FFmpeg 4.3 - Hackdot

Re:FFmpeg 4.3 by colpabar on Tuesday June 16, 2020 @01:04PM (#23541419)

does anyone have a good installation guide, which includes all the stuff that isn't supported in the default installation? ffmpeg is great, but a lot of times I go to use it and find a feature isn't supported because I didn't compile it with a flag set.

If you're on Windows or macOS there are good premade builds available at https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/. If you want to build it yourself look at https://github.com/rdp/ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers (this supports more than just Windows).

There are several static builds out there if you're okay with binaries. This person's builds[1] have the sources and build dependencies listed.

You didn't say which OS, but I wrote a set of cross-platform instructions for my PhotoStructure users: https://photostructure.com/getting-started/video-support/

tldr: if you're on Windows, use Chocolatey or Scoop. For macOS, use homebrew.
