Can't you download the sources as described on http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/download.html and then compile it?

That's weird... Could you post the output of
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. head Makefile
please? Although I'd be surprised if something was wrong with the makefile... But then, you're using Solaris and I don't know, if the makefile is thought for that. There might be something "wrong" with the configure file too...

Actually, this might work for you - there you can get ffmpeg packed for Solaris 10.

Ah, I just found this:
You can install ffmpeg on Solaris from Blastwave packages, but it's horribly outdated. The next alternative is to recompile from source, but from experience I can tell you that this is going to be a royal pain because of ABI differences in gcc and the Sun compiler (used by Blastwave). You'll need to recompile all ffmpeg dependencies from source too.
I myself have ffmpeg (version: 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibu ntu1) installed on a Linux system and here are the dependencies:
  • libavcodec1d (>= 0.cvs20070307),
  • libavformat1d (>= 0.cvs20070307),
  • libavutil1d (>= 0.cvs20070307),
  • libc6 (>= 2.7-1),
  • libfreetype6 (>= 2.3.5),
  • libimlib2,
  • libsdl1.2debian (>= 1.2.10-1),
  • libswscale1d (>= 0.cvs20070307)
I hope, that helps.
