I do not have an nvidia card - Anyone had any luck with QuickSync?

Compiling ffmpeg should be reasonable start forward I use the following:

#!/bin/bash
export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib/nvidia-367

make clean
make install

I just downloaded 3.2 from git and compiled it last week. The key sections are in BOLD
