Changed the subject -- since we kind of strayed off-topic from the original question. Hope that's not a problem. Question: Is there a benefit / cost to installing using -HEAD? From https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/macOS to get the latest released version with minimal configuration (and library dependency) options. These versions are packaged as Homebrew formulas and will take care of all the dependencies and the installation itself. To get the latest Git master version, run: Do I want "minimal configuration (and library dependency)? Does that imply minimal library dependency or does it mean minimal configuration but with library dependency? In words what are the tradeoffs between regular brewing and the -HEAD version? _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
