+FFmpeg examples README
+----------------------
+
+Both following use cases rely on pkg-config and make, thus make sure
+that you have them installed and working on your system.
+
+
+1) Build the installed examples in a generic read/write user directory
+
+Copy to a read/write user directory and just use "make", it will link
+to the libraries on your system, assuming the PKG_CONFIG_PATH is
+correctly configured.
+
+2) Build the examples in-tree
+
+Assuming you are in the source FFmpeg checkout directory, you need to build
+FFmpeg (no need to make install in any prefix). Then you can go into the
+doc/examples and run a command such as PKG_CONFIG_PATH=pc-uninstalled make.
