How set custom ffmpeg location as cmake variable?

[Ragnar]

Hi,

I'm trying build OBS Multiplatform on Ubuntu 15.04 and followed this guide: https://github.com/jp9000/obs-studio/wiki/Install-Instructions until I need to create cmake scripts (in portable way):

cmake -DUNIX_STRUCTURE=0 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="${HOME}/obs-studio-portable" ..

However, I didn't install ffmpeg libraries to system (I did "make install" at ffmpeg build dir). Is there a way to give the location of ffmpeg libraries to via cmake variable?

Thanks in advance,
Ragnar

set the FFmpegPath environment variable to the location of your ffmpeg include directory, for example perhaps you would do:

export FFmpegPath=~/ffmpeg_build/include

Obviously adjusting that to point to the location of your ffmpeg include files.
