The installation completes however its seems only ffmpeg is installed and not ffprobe or drawtext. A combination of package.json fields optionalDependencies, cpu, and os let's the installer only download the binary for the current platform.
#Installing ffmpeg mac os x install#
Since Homebrew will install to /usr/local/Cellar, and symlink to /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg, it probably wont cause any problems with other libraries. I am trying to install ffmpeg and its libraries with homebrew on a mac running osx (El Capitain).
#Installing ffmpeg mac os x zip#
The above script will make a directory for the new binaries, then download the ffmpeg zip to your Downloads directory, then unzip it and move the binaries to that newly created binary directory, and then finally it adds a line to your bash environment so that your terminal correctly sources the binaries. To uninstall whatever version of FFmpeg you installed wed need to know how youve installed it in the first place. If for some reason you cant upgrade, get the FLV Metadata Injector (Windows-only), or FLVTool2 (OS X and Linux) and process your flv files with them. Thus I recommend doing the following in your terminal: mkdir -p ~/.local/binĮcho 'export PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin' > ~/.bash_profile First, try upgrading to the latest version of FFmpeg. Since you don't want an admin password, it's probably best to keep them in your home directory. Then you just have to decide where to put the binaries. Looks like you can just download the zip for "Snow Leopard and Above 64bit", unzip the file once it's finished downloading (by double clicking it or using the commandline tool unzip), and then you have the binaries.
