Hi Ashraf, 

Firstly ..Which OS ?

Next..  if there is package manager, then use that as first option, unless a 
specific version of ffmpeg (or app/library) is required and its not available 
in packaged format. 

ffmpeg can easily be installed using YUM or apt-get. These will resolve the 
dependencies you faced automatically. You may want to add 3rd paty repository 
such as rpmforge (centos, redhat) or similar ones for debian systems. 


lastly, you will know that you have hit a dependency when you see.. 
"ERROR: libxxxx not found". All you have to do is identify which package will 
provide you with that lib file. Also keep an on version when it comes to 
dependency
