    13Compiling on Mac OS X is as easy as any other *nix machine, there are just a few caveats. The general procedure is {{{./configure <flags>; make && sudo make install}}}, but some use a different configuration scheme, or none at all.  You can also install the latest stable version of FFmpeg without the need to compile it yourself, which saves you a bit of time. Just follow this guide.

     38Mac OS X Lion comes with Freetype already installed (older versions may need 'X11' selected during installation), but in an atypical location: `/usr/X11`. Running `freetype-config` in Terminal can give the locations of the individual folders, like headers, and libraries, so be prepared to add lines like {{{CFLAGS=`freetype-config --cflags` LDFLAGS=`freetype-config --libs` PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11/lib/pkgconfig }}} before {{{./configure}}} or add them to your `$HOME/.profile` file.

    52 The new version of autoconf requires that you replace {{{AM_CONFIG_HEADER}}} in {{{configure.ac}}} at line 8 with {{{AC_CONFIG_HEADERS}}}. If you don't make this change you will see the following error message in the terminal:

    54 {{{
    55 configure.ac:8: error: 'AM_CONFIG_HEADER': this macro is obsolete.
    56     You should use the 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' macro instead.

    66 Once you have compiled all of the codecs/libraries you want, you can now download the FFmpeg source either with Git or the from release tarball links on the website. Study the output of {{{./configure --help}}} and make sure you've enabled all the features you want, remembering that --enable-nonfree and --enable-gpl will be necessary for some of the dependencies above.

    79 Finally install {{{qt-faststart}}}. This is a useful tool if you're showing your H.264 MP4 videos on the web. It relocates the [http://www.adobe.com/devnet/video/articles/mp4_movie_atom.html MOOV atom] in the video to allow playback to begin before the file is completely downloaded. When converting files with ffmpeg you can use `-movflags faststart` to have the same effect.
