This guide is in view of an insignificant establishment of the most recent CentOS discharge, and will provide a local, non-framework establishment of FFmpeg with support for a few outside encoding libraries.

Compile FFmpeg on CentOS - RHEL 5-6-7.md

In your home directory make a new directory to put all of the source code into:

yum install autoconf automake cmake freetype-devel gcc gcc-c++ git libtool make mercurial nasm pkgconfig zlib-devel
mkdir ~/ffmpeg_sources
cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/yasm/yasm.git
cd yasm
autoreconf -fiv
./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin"
make
make install
make distclean

libx264

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-gpl –enable-libx264.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# git clone --depth 1 git://git.videolan.org/x264
# cd x264
# ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin" --enable-static
# make
# make install
# make distclean

libx265

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-gpl –enable-libx265.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# hg clone https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265
# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources/x265/build/linux
# cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" -DENABLE_SHARED:bool=off ../../source
# make
# make install

libfdk_aac

AAC audio encoder.

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-libfdk_aac (and –enable-nonfree if you also included –enable-gpl).

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# git clone --depth 1 git://git.code.sf.net/p/opencore-amr/fdk-aac
# cd fdk-aac
# autoreconf -fiv
# ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --disable-shared
# make
# make install
# make distclean

libmp3lame

MP3 audio encoder.

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-libmp3lame.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# curl -L -O http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/lame/lame/3.99/lame-3.99.5.tar.gz
# tar xzvf lame-3.99.5.tar.gz
# cd lame-3.99.5
# ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin" --disable-shared --enable-nasm
# make
# make install
# make distclean

libopus

Opus audio decoder and encoder.

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-libopus.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# git clone git://git.opus-codec.org/opus.git
# cd opus
# autoreconf -fiv
# ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --disable-shared
# make
# make install
# make distclean

libogg

Ogg bitstream library. Required by libtheora and libvorbis.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# curl -O http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/ogg/libogg-1.3.2.tar.gz
# tar xzvf libogg-1.3.2.tar.gz
# cd libogg-1.3.2
# ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --disable-shared
# make
# make install
# make distclean

libvorbis

Vorbis audio encoder. Requires libogg.

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-libvorbis.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# curl -O http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/vorbis/libvorbis-1.3.4.tar.gz
# tar xzvf libvorbis-1.3.4.tar.gz
# cd libvorbis-1.3.4
# LDFLAGS="-L$HOME/ffmeg_build/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I$HOME/ffmpeg_build/include" ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --with-ogg="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --disable-shared
# make
# make install
# make distclean

libvpx

VP8/VP9 video encoder.

Requires ffmpeg to be configured with –enable-libvpx.

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# git clone --depth 1 https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx.git
# cd libvpx
# ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --disable-examples
# make
# make install
# make clean

FFmpeg

# cd ~/ffmpeg_sources
# git clone --depth 1 git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg
# cd ffmpeg
# PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib/pkgconfig" ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --extra-cflags="-I$HOME/ffmpeg_build/include" --extra-ldflags="-L$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib" --bindir="$HOME/bin" --pkg-config-flags="--static" --enable-gpl --enable-nonfree --enable-libfdk_aac --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopus --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265
# make
# make install
# make distclean
# hash -r
