I am new in github, my question is, can i use this library in my project and publish in google play or i need buy some license ?

This project generates GPL3 binaries, but since the communication with the ffmpeg binary is done through fork() and or exec() it seems you should be able to include it in a non-free program. If your program is GPL you shouldn't have any restrictions.

Still, take a note about which codecs you use to avoid lawyers knocking on your door.
