I like macports.org. ffmpeg downloaded and compiled nicely, and I think that all of the libraries that I'll need came down with it too. Now I need to play with it to see if I can get some nice mpeg2 to h.264 on the command line.
Why am I doing this? Well, from what I have heard, a lot of the shareware transcoders on the mac are just ffmpeg with some apple script wrapped around them, so I want to see what I can do for myself. Some of the ones which are around also seem broken, they fail to put out files. It would be nice if I could get this going for myself.
