Installing ffmeg on OSX

Firstly, a resource called HomeBrew must be installed. Open a terminal and enter this command,

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

Installing Homebrew is a lengthy process so be patient and wait until the process is completed. The title bar of the terminal window will provide information about the status of the installation. The installation will be complete ONLY when this message is seen in the terminal.

The second step is to install ffmeg. Copy this command into a terminal.

brew install ffmpeg

Again, be patient and wait until the installation is complete.
