Automated daily static builds of FFmpeg for Windows (x86_64/ARM64) and Linux (x86_64/ARM64), released via GitHub with gpl, lgpl, nonfree, and shared variants. It also provides the Docker-based build scripts used to produce these binaries.

Use cases

  • download a static ffmpeg binary for windows
  • get ffmpeg with libx264 and libx265 included
  • build ffmpeg from source with all dependencies
  • install ffmpeg on linux without package manager
  • get a nonfree ffmpeg build with fdk-aac
  • cross-compile ffmpeg for arm64

When to choose

  • you need ready-to-use static ffmpeg binaries with a broad set of codecs
  • you want reproducible docker-based ffmpeg builds for windows or linux
  • you need shared-library (libav*) variants of ffmpeg

When to avoid

  • you need macOS builds - only Windows and Linux targets are provided
  • you need win32/x86 auto-builds - those must be built yourself
  • you need a package-managed ffmpeg with system integration
