There is no need of homebrew to install ffmpeg on Apple Silicon. I could just ./configure and make on the DTK.

ffmpeg has so many configure options, I always avoid building it with brew.

Not all of the dependencies are ready (most notably, gnutls won't yet compile), so it would be the same result.

And for what I do, the default ffmpeg in Homebrew works fine.
