It's quite difficult, and more than can be explained in a thread. It's also not Drupal related. So google 'install ffmpeg' and add your server OS, and you should find some directions.

I tried googling and could not find anything. If this something everyone is suppose to do because I get this error when i try to install one of the most popular modules - the video module. Should I try re installing the module ?

First you should check whether or not FFMPEG is installed on your server. If it's not installed on your server, then the problem is not with the module, it's with your server, and nothing you do in Drupal will fix this. If you do have FFMPEG on your server, then the problem is with your Drupal configuration, and we can take it from there.
But I'm guessing you probably don't have FFMPEG installed on your server (the error message you showed seems to indicate that). It's not usually installed by default. If you are on shared hosting, it's almost definitely not installed.
