I previously wrote an article how to install ffmpeg on the Raspberry Pi.

For instance, in this article I actually had some bugs with Homebrew I had to fight. In truth I have just had a little easier time with MacPorts while I seem to have to wrestle a little more with Homebrew. Homebrew is a little easier to use, MacPorts is a little more complicated but powerful (though many would argue the point). You might be asking “what’s the difference between Homebrew and MacPorts?” Well, they basically do the same thing. The command will be “brew install ffmpeg –ANY-OPTIONS-YOU-WANT”.Įxample: brew install ffmpeg -with-fdk-aac -with-toolsĪ couple quick notes.

Install Homebrew with the following command:.

Get the latest MacPorts “easy installer” and install it:.

Open Terminal, enter the following and click “accept” on the dialog box:.

Note, don’t put Homebrew and MacPorts on the same machine, they don’t like each other, pick one or the other. There are two options for an “easy install”, Homebrew or MacPorts. I promised a blog post in our community that might help him or others dealing with media. A friend emailed over the weekend asking how to install it on a Mac. Thankfully it has gotten easier though the simpler installation methods aren’t well published. However, one down side to FFmpeg is that it’s flexible nature can make it tricky to install. Components of FFmpeg are found in many media products. VLC actually uses the codec library from the FFmpeg project, that’s why it works so well. If you work in media you probably use VLC, a great tool, plays about anything. It includes sub-components that allow for just about infinite flexibility. It includes an entire library of codecs that can be used to wrangle just about any piece of video. For those that don’t know about FFmpeg, it’s a project containing a command line suite of tools that allow someone to convert quite literally any piece of media to any other piece of media.
