+FFmpeg uses its own slightly modified runtime-loader for NVIDIA's CUDA/NVENC/NVDEC-related libraries. If you get an error from `configure` complaining about missing `ffnvcodec`, [http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg/nv-codec-headers.git;a=summary this project] is what you need. It has a working Makefile with an install target: {{{make install PREFIX=/usr}}}. FFmpeg will look for its pkg-config file, called `ffnvcodec.pc`. Make sure it is in your `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`.
