Compiling FFMPEG for CentOS 6.3 from source

# Compiling FFMPEG for CentOS 6.3 from source
# log of commands Sept 7th, 2012
# I found this information very helpful:
# http://cumulusclips.org/docs/install-ffmpeg-x264-on-centos/
# http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/CentosCompilationGuide
# You may have to add your own flavour of filters and codecs to the mix,
# I just needed FFMPEG to transcode from H264 MP4 to H264 MP4 Mobile, WEBM and OGV.

# first erase all ffmpeg related packages that you might have installed earlier:
# (I left the rpm's for libogg libvorbis libtheora installed - yum tried to remove too many dependencies to my liking)
yum erase ffmpeg faac libfaac x264 libx264 libvpx

# get some essential tools if needed (some are probably already installed)
yum install gcc gcc-c++ automake autoconf libtool nasm git subversion nasm pkgconfig
