  • Can anyone tell me how you compile ffmpeg from a GitHub version, preferably into a static build?
    1 project | /r/ffmpeg | 26 Sep 2022
    ffmpeg has the option to build in quite a few dependencies / external libraries, so it's rather complex. Last time I did it I used https://github.com/rdp/ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers but there are other build scripts on GitHub that also seem like they'd be good

    I recommend the ffmpeg windows build helpers and simply build your own.

    If you do want to compile yourself, there's a more thorough build script here https://github.com/rdp/ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers
  • patching ffmpeg on windows

    I've run into this situation myself, and in order to generate a version of the ffmpeg executable with the change I wanted I used VirtualBox to spin up a virtual linux machine, and then used https://github.com/rdp/ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers this script to build a new binary (adding in the diff patch at the appropriate point). It's an informative process, you learn a lot about how software is taken from source code into something usable, but if you're new to that world I wouldn't recommend taking it lightly. It took me a few solid days of work before I had a binary I could actually use.

    For Windows I've used: https://github.com/rdp/ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers. (cross-compiling on Linux)
  • Adding patch to custom build

    use a build script that someone else has put together. Don't try and do it yourself. Ffmpeg with all the usual libraries takes sooo many parts, that way madness lies. I had a lot of luck with https://github.com/rdp/ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers but I have no idea if that's better or worse than other options. Maybe u/_gyan has some advice there
