Description

A script to make a static build of FFmpeg.

Git mirrors:

• Codeberg
• GitHub
• GitLab

Build

mkdir -p cache/dnf
podman build --squash-all -v $(pwd)/cache/dnf:/cache/dnf:Z -t ffmpeg-static .
podman run -it --rm -v .:/ffmpeg-static:Z --name ffmpeg-static ffmpeg-static [-d]

Options:

• -d: download and unpack dependencies, don't build.

The binaries will be created in the ./bin directory.

You can delete the image after you're done with

podman rmi ffmpeg-static

Debug

Start a Podman container in the background, then enter it with a shell:

podman run -itd -v .:/ffmpeg-static:Z --entrypoint=/bin/bash --name ffmpeg-static ffmpeg-static
podman exec -it ffmpeg-static /bin/bash

On the top-level of the project, run

. env.sh

To download only dependencies, run

./build.sh -d

You can then enter the source folders and make the compilation yourself:

cd build/ffmpeg-*
./configure --prefix=$TARGET_DIR # <...>

Don't forget to delete the container after you're done:

podman stop -t 1 ffmpeg-static && podman rm ffmpeg-static
