It’s worth while typing the following command to keep MacPorts up to date sudo port -v selfupdate

MacPorts is actually pretty useful and gives you access to a whole bunch of open source software. You can download Command Line tools for XCode for free, you just need an Apple ID. The Command Line Tools make the XCode “stuff” available to MacPorts, which we will install in the next step. I’ve tested with XCode 4.3 on Lion, and XCode 4.4 on Mountain Lion without issues. Xcode is required to be installed as its needed in step 4 to actually download and compile FFMPEG. Now here is the longer explanation First install XCode Hear is the quick summary of what needs to be done Note that this will take at least an hour to complete due to the need to download and compile a bunch of stuff. Given that I had to repeat the installation process recently after reinstalling my MacBook AIR with Mountain Lion, I took some notes compiled from a few different sites into one quick cheat sheet. Another issue is that the “standard” FFmpeg build does not include support for H264 which is useful for video playback on iOS devices etc. The bad news is that due to licensing restrictions Adobe does not bundle FFmpeg with the standard CQ installation. If you are installing Adobe CQ5, you’ll love the fact that FFmpeg integration is supported out of the box.
