You may need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list to add add:īecause you will be installing libraries into /usr/local/lib you need to make sure that the dynamic linker (ld.so) looks in /usr/local/lib when it is searching for libraries. For example, on Debian you can install them using app-get install libmp3lame-dev libvorbis-dev libtheora-dev libx264-dev libspeex-dev yasm. You may not need to install the libraries and programs that ffmpeg needs (lame, libx264, libvorbis, libtheora, libspeex and yasm) from source - you may be able to install using your package manager.We have also provided specific instructions for Debian GNU/Linux which we recommend that you use if you are running Debian or Ubuntu LTS These instructions may need to be varied for different versions of Linux.Ffmpeg will be installed into /usr/local/bin

The required libs will be installed into /usr/local (/usr/local/lib /usr/local/bin etc).The following instructions explain how to install Ffmpeg and required libraries from source (and so they require a compiler such as gcc).
