if you compile your own cinelerra ffmpeg binary will be in
thirdparty/ffmpeg-5.1/ffmpeg


we do not install this binary because cin does all work via library
interface.

So I think you can do single-user build and then play with compiled binary
and may be even use it in shell scripting as described in

https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/CinelerraGG_Manual/Menu_Bar_Shell_Commands.html



> The latest openSUSE Leap 15.4 distro I use, has so far no official

> I have add-installed ffmpeg-5.1.2 from OBS (Open Build Service), but don't
