https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu
This guide for supported releases of Ubuntu, Debian, and Linux Mint will provide a local install of the latest FFmpeg tools and libraries including several external encoding and decoding libraries (codecs). This will not interfere with repository packages.
see blog post
All of download sources, build folder and binaries are isolated and by default located in your home folder.
~/.ffmpeg_sources
- all downloaded sources~/.ffmpeg_build
- sources build location, some libraries have their linked libraries and binaries drop in here, so you would see abin
,share or
lib` folders inside~/.ffmpeg_bin
- executable binaries
Just run the script, the installer follows the sequence from the FFmpeg's Ubuntu compilation guide. By default, it will install all libraries. Depending on your machine, it might take a while - go get a coffee
git clone https://github.com/rixrix/ffmpeg_ubuntu_installer.sh.git
chmod +x path/to/build.sh
/bin/bash path/to/build.sh
docker run -it --rm <image id> bash
mount a host folder into the container:
docker run -it --rm -v `pwd`/data:/mnt/data <image id> bash
This is a throw-away machine with Docker, so you just scrap the image or the container.
- Delete the image:
docker rmi <insert image id>
- Delete the container:
docker rm <insert container id>
