cd ffmpeg-4.2
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-shared && make && sudo make install
sudo sh -c ‘echo /usr/local/lib >>/etc/ld.so.conf’
sudo ldconfig
But it still cannot find the library.
have no idea now.

Update 17-04-2020: to get the latest information keep track of my GitHub I will keep updating the readme and I will add more guides (like how to build your own 3rd-party repo) in the future. The GitHub organization that I created also contains all the package configs that I used.

As your colleague forstmannbiz wrote to you: The easiest way to do it is install ffmpeg is greginator’s 3rd party repository:
sudo swupd 3rd-party add greginator https://clear.greginator.xyz/

OH! Jeeze, I need to read slower sometimes, thank you. Yeah that worked.

Unable to determine the latest version for repository greginator

It has been a while I added instructions for Chromium to the README file. Both Chromium and Firefox work great including hardware acceleration. @nobodyatandnothing and @Mazotis helped with debugging. Thank you. I never imagined for this repo to reach this point.
Disclaimer: I have an AMD box. Unfortunately, I’m unable to test using Intel graphics.
