The last build seems to be dated Jan 17. Still "fresh" enough. Although I
admit this might change over time. ;-)

Still much better than WInFF which for some reason ships with 2009 builds...

I don?t think anybody is "responsible" to provide you or anyone else
anything. You?re free to do your own builds if you want. Don?t get me
wrong..... I?m just trying to make a point that providing win32 builds AFAIK
has never been a goal or commitment of the project...

"FFmpeg has always been a very experimental and developer-driven project.  "

Just my $0.02...
