Since Homebrew will install to /usr/local/Cellar, and symlink to /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg, it probably won't cause any problems with other libraries. To uninstall whatever version of FFmpeg you installed we'd need to know how you've installed it in the first place. This guide will always be up to date, and by manually compiling you may be able to tweak a few parameters. You can of course build FFmpeg tools yourself, following the OS X compilation guide. Now restart your Terminal and which ffmpeg should return /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg. Now, if you use Bash (which is the default shell), add it to your $PATH: open -e ~/.bash_profileĪdd this to the file at the end: export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH" Copy this file to /usr/local/bin: cd ~/Downloads/ Once downloaded, extract the file, open up Terminal.app, and navigate to the directory where you unzipped the files, i.e. This is why I don't recommend using them unless you don't really care about which specific features you need. Static builds cannot contain every possible encoder, mostly due to licensing issues. The FFmpeg project, on the download page, offers links to static builds for ffmpeg, which you can just download, extract, and use in a terminal. To update ffmpeg later on, run: brew update & brew upgrade ffmpeg
This will download a lot of dependencies such as x264, but after that you should be good to go.
Then install FFmpeg through the ffmpeg formula: brew install ffmpeg Homebrew has a formula for stable FFmpeg releases. To follow this you need to have a bit of knowledge using a terminal/shell under macOS. So it’s up to you, get it as it is without going through Apple crap or accept their conditions and get the full package.There are three options, sorted by complexity: This because you need to compile ffmpeg from source. Please check this post on how to get it (coming soon.) You can install ffmpeg quite easily thanks to homebrew by opening a terminal and run:Īnyway a few components are missing from that package, like ffplay which is a great too to preview the scripts before write to disk.īut to get those additions you need to install Xcode, which has copyright, Terms of Use, and this and that by the lovely Apple… Please refer to this post on how and why to install HomeBrew (a command-line package manager).
