[FFmpeg-user] libtheora, libmp3lame, vidstab, libvorbis, and libxvid not found on OS X

Disclaimer: I have neither Mac not homebrew. Why it works for other Mac
users I cannot evaluate.

lame doesn't use pkg-config, so ffmpeg's configure will have to be told
to include /usr/local/Cellar/lame/3.99.5/include in its search paths.

Either homebrew has changed from providing the headers (and libs) in a
standard location, or the instructions are incorrect in omitting that
this needs to be added:
  --extra-cflags="-I/usr/local/Cellar/lame/3.99.5/include" --extra-ldflags="-L/usr/local/Cellar/lame/3.99.5/lib"
(I'm guessing a little bit about the lib location.)

Same (likely) for all the other installed libs which weren't found.

Cheers,
