+#Installing FFmpeg:
+
+1. Type `./configure` to create the configuration. A list of configure
+options is printed by running `configure --help`.
+
+ `configure` can be launched from a directory different from the FFmpeg
+sources to build the objects out of tree. To do this, use an absolute
+path when launching `configure`, e.g. `/ffmpegdir/ffmpeg/configure`.
+
+2. Then type `make` to build FFmpeg. GNU Make 3.81 or later is required.
+
+3. Type `make install` to install all binaries and libraries you built.
+
+NOTICE
+------
+
+ - Non system dependencies (e.g. libx264, libvpx) are disabled by default.
