FFMPEG BUILD SCRIPT

• Trying to avoid dynamic library dependencies (see recipes/ffmpeg.sh for a list of allowed dynamic libraries).
• Dependencies are git submodules.

Releases are tagged as such:

ffmpeg-<ffmpeg-commit>-<ffmpeg-date>-<build-number>

For example release ffmpeg-285c7f6f6b-2023-06-26-001 is the first build of ffmpeg commit 285c7f6f6b which was commited on 2023-06-26.

Important: Any changes in a submodule (modules/*) will be erased by the script (see maybe_clean_module function).

Mac dependencies:

brew install \
  autoconf@2.13 autoconf \
  automake \
  libtool \
  pkg-config \
  yasm nasm \
  cmake

Linux & Windows dependencies:

See Docker files.

Usage:

$ ./build.sh

Cross-compilation:

$ ./build.sh <target>

Targets:

• linux-x86_64
• linux-i686
• windows-x86_64
• windows-i686
• mac-x86_64
• mac-arm64

Compilation result will be under the dist/ directory. To rebuild a dependency or ffmpeg itself, rm -rf the relevant directory in dist/<os>/<target>/.

Build with docker:

Will build Linux and Windows builds.

./docker.sh

Compilation result will be under the dist/ directory.

Test:

$ ./tests/test.sh

Execute a few tests to make sure basic features are properly supported.

jq and dialog necessary.

On Windows, the script must be run from MSYS2, and jq.exe should be in the path. dialog can be installed via pacman -S dialog.

Note:

If on Apple Silicon AOM fails to compile and gets stuck on a call to /usr/bin/as, remove Wl, in GNU.cmake under the homebrer Ceilar.
