-not included but common in other static builds:
---enable-fontconfig  --enable-librubberband  --enable-libgsm --enable-gme
+# Updates
 
-other libs:
+This binary requires a large number of patches and rebuilds of components to function so it will lag behind any other FFMPEG-static binaries by quite a bit. If you want updates please **OPEN A TICKET** but keep in mind this is a rather low priority to me.
 
-libavutil      56. 72.100 / 56. 72.100
+# TODO
 
-libavcodec     58.135.100 / 58.135.100
+ - Make this less painful to build
+ 
+# Bugs
 
-libavformat    58. 77.100 / 58. 77.100
+ - It passes FATE but that does not mean it actually works
 
-libavdevice    58. 14.100 / 58. 14.100
+# License(s)
 
-libavfilter     7.111.100 /  7.111.100
+ - FFMPEG and components fall under GPLv3 AFAIK
