Disclaimer

Use this script at your own risk. I maintain this script in my spare time. Please do not file bug reports for systems other than Debian 10 and macOS 10.15.x because I don't have the resources and the time to maintain other systems.

Continuos Integration

ffmpeg-build-script is rockstable. Every commit runs against Linux and MacOS with https://travis-ci.org just to make sure everything works as expected.

Requirements MacOS

  • XCode 10.x or greater

Requirements Linux

  • Debian >= Buster, Ubuntu => Focal Fossa, other Distributions might work too
  • build-essentials installed:
# Debian and Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install build-essential curl g++

# Fedora
sudo dnf install @development-tools

Installation

Quick install and run

Open your command line and run (needs curl to be installed):

bash <(curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/markus-perl/ffmpeg-build-script/master/web-install.sh?v1")

This command downloads the build script and automatically starts the build process.

Run with Docker

git clone https://github.com/markus-perl/ffmpeg-build-script.git
cd ffmpeg-build-script
docker build --tag=ffmpeg .
docker run  ffmpeg -i http://files.coconut.co.s3.amazonaws.com/test.mp4 -f webm -c:v libvpx -c:a libvorbis - > /tmp/test.mp4

Common installation

git clone https://github.com/markus-perl/ffmpeg-build-script.git
cd ffmpeg-build-script
./build-ffmpeg --help

Cuda installation

CUDA is a parallel computing platform developed by NVIDIA. To be able to compile ffmpeg with CUDA support, you first need a compatible NVIDIA GPU.

  • Ubuntu: To install the CUDA toolkit on Ubuntu, simply run "sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-toolkit"
  • Other Linux distributions: Once you have the GPU and display driver installed, you can follow the official instructions or this blog to setup the CUDA toolkit.

Usage

./build-ffmpeg --help       Display usage information
./build-ffmpeg --build      Starts the build process
./build-ffmpeg --cleanup    Remove all working dirs
