Question is simple, do they support it?

No. ffmpeg is only used for video and music sharing sites, which we don’t allow.

Also, media transcoding takes A LOT of processing power, so any hosting offering ffmpeg is either very expensive or very bad. I’d like InfinityFree to be neither of those, so ffmpeg is not going to be offered.
