The good news is that the ports team has already done the work to make
these compile and run on OpenBSD. Take a look at
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html
You should be able to just set the PKG_PATH environment variable to
point to a packages ftp site for version 5.4 and do "pkg_add ffmpeg",
for example.
If you have some reason to redo that work, then you should at least
review the patches in the ports tree to see how they did the porting.
