This project prepares a minimalist Docker image with FFmpeg. It compiles FFmpeg from sources following instructions from the Compilation Guide.
You can install the latest build of this image by running docker pull jrottenberg/ffmpeg.
This image can be used as a base for an encoding farm.
You can use jrottenberg/ffmpeg or jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.3 to get the latest build based on ubuntu.
Note : I've made ubuntu the default after 3.1
You'll find centos based image using ffmpeg:X.Y-centos or ffmpeg:centos to get the latest. alpine images ffmpeg:X.Y-alpine to get the latest. scratch images ffmpeg:X.Y-scratch to get the latest. (Scratch is an experimental image containing only FFmpeg and libraries)

Thanks to qmfrederik for the vaapi ubuntu based variant
jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi or jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi-${VERSION}
- Run the container with the device attached /dev/dri from your host into the container :
docker run --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri -v $(pwd):/mnt jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi [...]
- Have the Intel drivers up and running on your host. You can run
vainfo(part of vainfo package on Ubuntu) to determine whether your graphics card has been recognized correctly. - Run ffmpeg with the correct parameters, this is the same as when running ffmpeg natively.

So it's easier to review the template change.
