Homebrew (AKA, Brew) tap for formulae such as FFmpeg that include options

Homebrew Options Tap

This repository contains Homebrew (AKA, Brew) “formulae” that include options, which Homebrew project maintainers removed as of Homebrew version 2.0.

Formulae for the following software are included in this repository:

• FFmpeg
• Chromaprint
• Music Player Daemon (MPD)
• Pianobar

Installation

If the target formula has already been installed from homebrew-core, you will first need to uninstall it:

brew uninstall ffmpeg

Then look at the formula source and choose which options you want — the options shown below are only examples. Then install via:

brew tap justinmayer/tap
brew install justinmayer/tap/ffmpeg --with-chromaprint --with-fdk-aac --with-srt

If you want the fpcalc CLI executable that is part of the Chromaprint project, download it from the Chromaprint site, expand, and put it somewhere on your PATH.
