Hi, Lion is the codename for OS X 10.7 operating system from Apple.  I 
downloaded three binaries - ffmpeg, ffprob, ffserver from the official source. 
I'm not quite sure what "building ffmpeg" means and I didn't use the command 
line to install it, also I am unfamiliar with "make install" command. After 
downloading I moved all three to /usr/bin directory. Running man 
/my/installprefixshare/man/man1/ffmpeg.1 returned No manual entry for 
/my/installprefixshare/man/man1/ffmpeg.1.
