  • Do you have subversion installed? What's the error you get when you try?

Grab the latest release, extract it (tar -xvjpf ffmpeg-0.6.1.tar.bz2), and continue with the tutorial. That should get you around the SVN requirement.

  • or better grab the binary somewhere ! there is no need for packages with multimedia - package updates tend to break things by my experience, so get binary from some working system of yours and copy it there. The Ubuntu 10.10 is the first usable ffmpeg I saw in the distros in the long time...
