Answer 1

You should not be using ffmpeg in an iOS for a number of reasons. First, there are real license issues that put including ffmpeg in a legal grey area when it comes to iOS apps. Second, performance will be very very poor. Third, iOS already includes APIs that have access to the h.264 hardware on the device. You can find my example Xcode project at AVDecodeEncode, this is an example of using my library to decode from h.264 and then encode back to h.264.
