Create the jail
Install the encoding options you'd like to use inside the jail. 'jls' to see the list of jails and to enter the jail: 'jexec #'.
I installed the following
  1. pkg install python
  2. pkg install ffmpeg
  3. pkg install handbrake
  4. Filebot: Extracted the portable package into a folder in the jail -- Screenshot
  5. pkg install libass
  6. portsnap fetch
  7. cd /usr/ports/audio/lame
  8. make install clean (just keep hitting enter till it's finished)
Make sure the jail can access your encoding / media folder(s)

I used this python script and commented out import ntfsutils.junction (Line 63)

and then changed these lines:

FFMPEG = '/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg' #'/usr/bin/FFMPEG'
HANDBRAKE = "/usr/local/bin/HandBrakeCLI" #'/usr/bin/HandBrakeCLI"
FILEBOT = '/filebot/filebot.sh'

Run the Python Script in the jail:

root@encoder_jail: nohup python conv2mp4.py &

Thanks to @KameeCoding & https://www.reddit.com/user/infinull for helping me getting it working.

Do you get the following error when running Filebot in the CLI?

Code:
Failed to read xattr: UserDefinedFileAttributeView is not supported
