If your AMI EPEL repos have 6th version, then use CentOS 6. You need to add CentOS repos, which contain these missing packages. This error happens because Amazon Linux doesn't include most multimedia libs including ffmpeg, Pulse and so on. I guess you used commands from this guide, but this method doesn't work. I tried to grab it manually from here, but it needs these dependencies, so no-go: > error: Failed dependencies: SDL = It seems strange to me though that SDL is not inrpmforge ordag`, and in according to both of my references above, it should be there. Regardless I will install ffmpeg from svn so I can be sure to enable the options I want (namelylibx264 ). The rpmforge repo has ffmpeg, but if you try to install it then it will complain that is missing dependencies (for me libSDL-1.2.so.0()(64bit)). Here are some guidelines I'm using for reference: TWoZaO and Razuna

I'm installing ffmpeg to run on an Amazon linux AMI, and have added the rpmforge repo and the dag repo.
