Did you install a C compiler first? I'm not a OS X user, but you may need to install Xcode first. Or use homebrew if you prefer: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/MacOSX Or if you don't want to compile just download a binary. This is the easiest option. http://www.evermeet.cx/ffmpeg/ _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
