I need to build FFmppg for the windows environment with limited features.I am not able to find good documentation for building FFmpeg.exe for windows. Suggest me the good documentation for building FFmpeg on windows or tell me step by step procedure to compile
See ffmpeg-windows-build-helpers. It's a script that simplifies compiling ffmpeg for Windows.
Run ./cross_compile_ffmpeg.sh -h to see all available options to customize the build.

I have tried many ways to find from Google, but all failed. I want to compile my own ffmpeg library under win10 so that I can easily debug to see the problem when using ffmpeg.
Can anyone tell me a compilation method that still works?
Finally I don't complie ffmpeg in win10 by vs2019,I use msys2 and mingw.
If Someone want to complie ffmpeg in win10 same as me,can refer this url.
ffmpeg in windows
Current ffmpeg depends on CryptAcquireContextW what was deprecated and now removed from Windows. It compiles fine, but on running it crashes with text: "ffmpeg procedure entry point CryptAcquireContextW could not be located in the dynamic link library". advapi32 does not provide it anymore? The net say's it is deprecated already for a longer, however latest stable 4.3.git ffmpeg still depends on it.
Is there a temporary fix possible to compile successfully working ffmpeg for the windows 10 using MinGW?
I have archive software that uses ffmpeg on a Solaris server to generate previews during the archive process. I have installed ffmpeg on the Solaris server following the steps outlined here
It appears as though the package installs successfully but if I run 'ffmpeg' as root I receive '-bash: ffmpeg: command not found'. From what I understand, running this command is what needs to work for the archive software to be able to use ffmpeg. From a bit of research it looks like I either have to move the ffmpeg install location to somewhere else or define some path that points to the ffmpeg software. My Solaris knowledge is limited so I am not sure how to do either of those things. Could someone describe how to define the path or move the installed package to the correct location?
Thank you
While compiling ffmpeg it's showing Unknown encoder libfdk_aac error.
Can anyone explain how I can install libfdk_aac for my FFMPEG?
I am using centos 6.
libfdk_aac is considered non-free and therefore non-redistributable, so you should find no builds with support for this encoder. Therefore, you must compile.
The FFmpeg Wiki has a compile guide with step-by-step instructions for CentOS. The resulting ffmpeg binary will support libfdk_aac:
FFmpeg Wiki: Compile FFmpeg on CentOS
Note that this guide performs a "local installation" into the ~/bin directory of the user following the guide: this is to avoid conflicts with the package management system, system files, and repository packages. Also, it allows a non-superuser to compile, such as on a shared server (assuming the build dependencies, like make, are available). This works fine for most users, but depending on your needs you may have to move the binary somewhere else in your PATH environment variable.
Alternatively, you could just use a different AAC encoder. Feed it enough bits and you'll do fine.
Generally, "link-only" answers are discouraged, but I'm going to make an exception in this case. I am hesitant to copy and paste the content from the link because of the size of the guide and the likely chance that the answer will become outdated as the guide is updated (such as what happens to the many rotting copycat compile guides).
I'm trying to install FFmpeg directly from the source and I keep getting this error:
gcc is unable to create an executable file.
If gcc is a cross-compiler, use the --enable-cross-compile option.
Only do this if you know what cross compiling means.
C compiler test failed.
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from Git. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
ffmpeg-user#ffmpeg.org mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net.
Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.
Can anyone help? Also, yum install ffmpeg doesn't work.
Apparently, with the limited information I have, you need to at least install gcc to compile ffmpeg. See How to Compile FFmpeg on CentOS for instructions. It is designed for CentOS, but should work for RHEL and Fedora.
Alternatively you can simply use a static build of ffmpeg instead of compiling, but it doesn't have the advantage of customization that compiling provides.
