Script to build a static FFMpeg binary with NVENC support

compile-ffmpeg-nvenc.sh

#!/bin/bash

# This script will compile and install a static ffmpeg build with support for nvenc in ubuntu.
# See the prefix path and compile options if edits are needed to suit your needs.

# NOTE: This build is made to target Ubunutu 16.04 Data-Science Azure VMs - With nVidia 418.xx drivers and CUDA SDK 9.0.
#       It also relies on a hack described in https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/6431#comment:7 to make glibc dynamic still.
#       Long story short, you need to edit your ffmepg's configure script to avoid failures on libm and libdl.
#         in function probe_cc, replace the _flags_filter line to: _flags_filter='filter_out -lm|-ldl'
