Per your screenshot, probably not.  If you distribute FFmpeg, you must follow the license.  There's no exception for non-commercial use.  You must provide or offer to provide the source code for the version of FFmpeg you ship.

As I told Zeeshan a few minutes ago, I Am Not A Lawyer.  You might want one if you have trouble figuring out your responsibilities under the (L)GPL.
