We updated our guide "HowTo install and configure FFmpeg and FFmpeg-Php" at: http://servertune.com/kbase/entry/133/

This guide has been used effectively on several DirectAdmin and cPanel powered production servers with CentOS v5.x and Red Hat v4/5, however there are some which might not be compatible.

Thank you and happy holidays :)
