(I added these to my firewall.sh I run every time I update iptables, if you use another firewall just make sure the correct ports are open)

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 8895 -j ACCEPT -m comment --comment "Serviio"

As per Building FFmpeg on Linux but edited slightly for CentOS:

• Remove packages, adand install essential build packages for later

  yum remove x264 ffmpeg -y
  yum install git libfaac-devel libmp3lame-devel libtheora-devel \
  libva-devel libvdpau-devel libvorbis-devel libX11-devel libXfixes-devel texi2html yasm \
  libxvidcore-devel  libXext-devel libXfixes-devel librtmp-devel -y

• x264 (optional)

  cd ~
  mkdir src
  cd src
  git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264
  cd x264
  ./configure --enable-static --prefix=/usr
  make fprofiled
  make install

• Libvpx< (optional)code>cd ~/src

git clone http://git.chromium.org/webm/libvpx.git
cd libvpx
./configure
make install</code>

• rtmpdump

  cd ~/src
  git clone git://git.ffmpeg.org/rtmpdump
  cd rtmpdump
  make SYS=posix

Some of the above libraries are optional, if you don't build them, remember to remove the equivilant –enable-libXXX from ./configure below.

• ffmpeg

  cd ~/src
  wget http://download.serviio.org/opensource/ffmpeg-N-42368-gbf53863.tar.gz
  tar xvf ffmpeg-N-42368-gbf53863.tar.gz
  cd ffmpeg
  ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora \
   --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-version3 \
  --enable-x11grab --enable-libvpx --enable-librtmp --enable-libxvid
  make
  make fprofiled
  make install

• Add the ffmpeg location to /opt/serviio/bin/serviio.sh by updating the following line with the -Dffmpeg.location e.g.:

# Setup Serviio specific properties
JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dderby.system.home=$SERVIIO_HOME/library -Dserviio.home=$SERVIIO_HOME -Dffmpeg.location=/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg"

• At this point it should be working, I have this tested on an XBox 360, if you have any troubles you may find my the forum post here useful http://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7277&start=0
