I create and install them as packages. Install latest
ffmpeg, mlt, frei0r and kdenlive from Debian unstable and
debian-multimedia.org, and their build dependencies. Then I take ffmpeg, mlt,
frei0r and kdenlive from git, copy paste debian directories from the latest
source packages to the git trees, edit debian/changelog to add git commit id
and a time stamp, build and install the packages. Often I also remove stripping
from the debian/rules makefile, and sometimes run kdenlive from the source
tree with gdb.

With packages I can easily remove locally build packages and fall back to
packages from the distribution. And I can update the fast moving Debian
unstable distro on my machine.

Hope this helps,
