I'm trying to get ffmpeg running on a Centos 6 machine and it has been uphill the whole way. I thought I had got it but when I go to use ffmpeg I get the error:

ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libswresample.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I looked in /usr/local/lib, which is where all the libraries are stored, and I do not have that exact file but I do have "libswresample.a". I gave up on the official FFMPEG Centos directions due to all kinds of issues and used yum to install.

Where do I find the missing library and can I just put the file in my /usr/local/lib to fix?

Thanks -- have a basic Linux understanding, more familiar with Ubuntu than Centos.
