Which ffmpeg package I should download for macOS?
I visited https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html#build-mac to download ffmpeg & ffprobe for Mac OS X High Sierra 10.13. I found the following packages:
Static builds for OS X Intel 64-bit
Builds 32-bit and 64-bit for OS X 10.5 and above
Static and shared builds for macOS 64-bit
Which package I should download? Wnd what's the difference between them?

You can install ffmpeg via three methods:
Downloading a static build from ffmpeg.org. Choose these if you want a simple-to-run program that comes with many features. You have to manually update it, though. Also, for licensing reasons, static builds cannot bundle all third-party dependencies.
Installing from Homebrew via
brew install ffmpeg. You get the most common dependencies (encoders etc.) installed along and it auto-updates when you update Homebrew.Building from source (see here). This usually is not required.
Some help for choosing a static build:
If you want a build that runs without any external dependencies, download a static build.
If you have a 64-Bit operating system (i.e. anything above OS X 10.7), download a 64-Bit build.
The builds on evermeet.cx require OS X 10.9, while the builds from Zeranoe require OS X 10.10.
The Zeranoe builds have a few more third-party dependencies enabled by default. (Compare the configuration lines on the respective websites or in the READMEs.)
