This is not a problem with ffmpeg: it is a problem with your system. You
need to make sure /tmp is not mounted with noexec. You can see if
noexec is shown for /tmp:

$ mount | grep tmp

You can remount /tmp without noexec, or set the TMPDIR environment
variable to another directory and make sure that it is not mounted
with noexec.
