    Good morning is Stephen.I installed FFMPEG for mac lion I get this error
    I cam help you install.Grazie

    The installation was not successful.

    ##sudo: /private/etc/sudoers is mode 0644, should be 0440
    sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting


  2. I never had a chance to use ffmpeg in Mac OS X Snow Leopard, never tried to updrage it to Lion as everything is perfectly set-up and working just fine beyond imagination.

    But, the procedure for ffmpegX would be same like other codecs.

    Get ffmpegX either from VideoHelp or from here,
    And simply follow these steps:
    1) Control-click on the ffmpegX application, choose Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu, and navigate into Resources.
    2) Copy ffmpeg to /usr/local/bin.
    3) Execute the following in Terminal (as admin):

    sudo chown root:wheel /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg
    sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

    4) open the terminal, and type

    ffmpeg -h

    if you see help, its already running in terminal.

    Hope this will work for you.

    Try this:
    sudo chmod 440 /private/etc/sudoers
    You will have to enter your password when asked for a password.

    That might fix the issue with sudoers and let you re-do the installation.
