ffmpeg not being recognized by dvdrip

Hello,

I have installed ffmpeg. But dvdrip says that ffmpeg is not installed 
when I do a dependencies check.

FFmpeg version 0.5, Copyright (c) 2000-2009 Fabrice Bellard, et al.
  configuration: --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libvorbis --disable-mmx 
--enable-shared --disable-demuxer=v4l --disable-demuxer=v4l2
  libavutil     49.15. 0 / 49.15. 0
  libavcodec    52.20. 0 / 52.20. 0
  libavformat   52.31. 0 / 52.31. 0
  libavdevice   52. 1. 0 / 52. 1. 0
  built on Feb 27 2010 19:50:23, gcc: 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9)

which ffmpeg
    /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

which dvdrip
    /usr/bin/dvdrip

I created a soft link in case that was a problem.
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 21 Feb 27 22:16 /usr/bin/ffmpeg -> 
/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

Where is dvdrip looking for ffmpeg to be installed?

Regards,
Gary
