I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 and experiencing some problems with ffmpeg. I found this blog post http://pasindudps.blogspot.com/2010/12/compiling-ffmpeg-in-ubuntu-1010.html but it seems to be deprecated on Ubuntu 11.04.

The post suggests to compile x264 and ffmpeg yourself. But use x264 from Ubuntu and compile just ffmpeg is enough. So, here are the steps. Start by removing ffmpeg and making sure x264 is properly installed.

apt-get remove ffmpeg

apt-get update

apt-get install libx264-116 libx264-dev x264 libfaac-dev libfaac0 yasm libmp3lame-dev libopencore-amrwb-dev libtheora-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libvpx-dev libxvidcore-dev
apt-get autoremove

Then, login as root, download, compile and install ffmpeg:

su -
svn checkout svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg

cd ffmpeg

./configure --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-x11grab

make

make install





It's done, you can now use ffmpeg normally (in may case, ripping mp3 from a video :D )
