Sorry for not including the output. You can see it here:
http://pastebin.com/AC64iFfm

>pkg version -v | grep ffmpeg
"ffmpeg-2.1.1_1,1                    =   up-to-date with port"
I have latest version that is in the ports tree on FreeBSD 9.

I have not tested with th vpx executable, I will try that.
