Comment:

update introductions, slightly re-structure / fix formatting to harmonize with CentOS guide, remove "recommendation" for assemblers (since they're used for some libs below), use Git to fetch latest versions, update LAME and Opus versions, remove notice about old ffmpeg versions Ubuntu releases, etc

    5 This guide for supported releases of '''Ubuntu''', '''Debian''', and '''Linux Mint''' will provide a local install of the latest FFmpeg tools and libraries including several external encoding and decoding libraries (codecs). This will not interfere with repository packages.

    7 You may also refer to the [[GenericCompilationGuide|Generic FFmpeg Compilation Guide]] for additional information.

    18 == Get the Dependencies ==
    19 
    20 Copy and paste the whole code box for each step. First install the dependencies:
    21 
    22 {{{
    23 sudo apt-get update
    24 sudo apt-get -y install autoconf automake build-essential libass-dev libfreetype6-dev \

    32 }}}
    33 
    34 Now make a directory for the source files that will be downloaded later in this guide:
    35 
    36 {{{
    37 mkdir ~/ffmpeg_sources

    41 
    42 == Compilation & Installation ==
    43 
    44 You can compile `ffmpeg` to your liking. If you do not require certain encoders you may skip the relevant section and then remove the appropriate `./configure` option in FFmpeg. For example, if libopus is not needed, then skip that section and then remove `--enable-libopus` from the [#ffmpeg Install FFmpeg] section.
     12#!div style="border: 1px solid #e5e5c7; margin: 1em; background-color: #ffd;"

    267 == Conclusion ==
    268 
    269 Installation is now complete and `ffmpeg` is now ready for use. Your newly compiled FFmpeg programs are in `~/bin`.
     263Compilation is now complete and `ffmpeg` (also `ffprobe`, `ffserver`, `lame`, and `x264`) should now be ready to use. The rest of this guide shows how to update or remove FFmpeg.

    270269
    271270=== Usage ===
    … …  
    274273
    275274* Navigate to `~/bin` and execute the binary: `cd ~/bin && ./ffmpeg -i ~/input.mp4 ~/videos/output.mkv` (notice the `./`)
    276 * Or use the full path to the binary: `/home/yourusername/bin/ffmpeg -i ../input.mp4 ../videos/output.mkv`
     275* Or use the full path to the binary: `~/bin/ffmpeg -i ../input.mp4 ../videos/output.mkv`
    277276
    278277If you want the `ffmpeg` command to just work from anywhere:

     283#!div style="border: 1px solid #e5e5c7; margin: 1em; background-color: #ffd;"
    285284'''Note:''' `~/bin` is included in the standard Ubuntu `$PATH` by default (via the `~/.profile` file), ''but only when the `~/bin` directory actually exists''. This is why you must log out then log in or run `source ~/.profile` if you just created `~/bin`. See [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables#Persistent_environment_variables Ubuntu Wiki: Persistent Environment Variables] for more info.
    286285}}}
    … …  
    300299You can also refer to the [https://ffmpeg.org/documentation.html online FFmpeg documentation], but remember that it is regenerated daily and is meant to be used with the most current `ffmpeg` (meaning an old build may not be compatible with the online docs).
    301300
    302 === Additional Notes ===
    303 
    304 * See the [[Encode/H.264|H.264 Encoding Guide]] for some encoding examples.
    305 * If you do not see `FFmpeg developers` in your ffmpeg console output then something went wrong and you're probably using the [http://stackoverflow.com/a/9477756/1109017 fake "ffmpeg"] from the repository (the counterfeit "`ffmpeg`" was eventually removed and the real `ffmpeg` returned in 15.04).
    306 * You can delete the `ffmpeg_sources` directory if you want to.
