Today I have published in OKay's RPM repository RPMs for OpenH264 1.6.0. Cisco has taken their H.264 implementation, and open sourced it under BSD license terms. Development and maintenance will be overseen by a board from industry and the open source community. Furthermore, we have provided a binary form suitable for inclusion in applications across a number of different operating systems, and make this binary module available for download from the Internet. We will not pass on our MPEG-LA licensing costs for this module, and based on the current licensing environment, this will effectively make H.264 free for use on supported platforms.

This RPM is needed to support the mod_openh264 module from FreeSWITCH 1.6.15.
RPM's are available for Centos 6 and 7. And you can find it if you type yum search openh264.
Enjoy!
