you can not download binaries from the official source because ffmpeg
upstream only releases source code - complain wherever you downloaded
the binaries
"building ffmpeg" means compile it from source
this is a sourcecode project not Apple :-)

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.

Hi,
I just downloaded ffmpeg set of tools (I'm on Lion). "ffmpeg --help" command printed out a guide in
which I read that in order to get detailed description of each option I have to run "man ffmpeg"
however doing that returns "No manual entry for ffmpeg". Therefore my question would be how do I
install manuals for ffmpeg or --help, -h with all the switches is a substitute or that?
After building ffmpeg, the man pages are in $builddir/doc/.
After "make install", the man pages are in
$installprefix/share/man/man1/.
If you installed them somewhere else, you can point the "man" command
(well, at least Linux's version, not sure about "Lion") to the file:
man /my/installprefixshare/man/man1/ffmpeg.1
