The libffmpeg has already been made available to you as part of mingw:
$ pacman -Ss ffmpeg
mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-ffmpeg 2.8-1
Complete and free Internet live audio and video broadcasting solution
(mingw-w64)
mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-ffmpeg 2.8-1
Complete and free Internet live audio and video broadcasting solution
(mingw-w64)
So you can go find the PKGBUILD of this, and see what is needed to build
this.

That is a very strange way. Mixings linkers from different compiler tool
chain will most probably not work.

Something which *Must* have a posix functionality, has to be build as
msys2. For anything else
mingw64 is perhaps betters. AFAIK, Msys2 is _only_ the scaffolding for
what you want to build with
mingw64 chain.
