Hi,

Check the "Build problem veejay" topic on (19/10/2011) in the list
archives, there are various hints about too new/too old ffmpeg.

2012/5/28 Guillaume Garnier <guiluxm...@gmail.com>:

Okay thanks for your replies.
I compiled ffmpeg with its latest snapshot and I have another error
now.
So you recommend to do this ?
***
git pull on 2011-11-11.
Commit id: 985e76802435a3eabfbfca3ca27cc3aa66ba907a

On my main computer it's 20111108 on archlinux, and it works too.

I removed Ubuntu's ffmpeg/libav, built ffmpeg on /opt/ffmpeg4veejay,
set PKG_CONFIG_PATH accordingly and also set C_INCLUDE_PATH to
ffmpeg's
include path.
***
This is not clear enough for me :)
1. you remove libav*, right ? but replaced by what ?
2.I guess "set C_INCLUDE_PATH to ffmpeg's include path" is a build
feature for ffmpeg, but I have no idea how to do this

anyway, here's the output of my second attempt to build veejay with
fresh ffmpeg

thanks for your help !

Hi,

I'll look at this during the weekend and patch veejay to work with the most
recent version of ffmpeg (0.11)

But it should build with the 0.9 or older releases of ffmpeg

PKG_CONFIG_PATH should point to a list of directories that contain the .pc
files, first found is included.
There's no need to change the c include path, pkg-config sets the c include
path when configure is run.

See you,
Niels

Hi Niels,

quoting myself:
"While doing it I found that if ffmpeg is not installed in the path,
veejay does not build: it misses -I/opt/ffmpeg4veejay on my box. So I
did a rough C_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/ffmpeg4veejay/include/ and it built."

I'm not sure where this problem is from.

Cheers,
charles

je comprend :).

By nothing. I didn't need ffmpeg/libav since it was a dedicated computer
for veejay. Since then I switched to archlinux on that machine too, so I
can't try what I said anymore.

It a modification I had to make in the configure/makefile file of
veejay.

Maybe ffmpeg is too new now. Try checking out the revision I stated in
the previous discussion.

Or wait for Niels to follow the ever-changing ffmpeg interface. BTW it
seems the gmerlin API is way more stable.

cheers,
charlot

Okay, it worked with a tar 0.8.5.git-985e768 version of ffmpeg \o/

Thanks for your help    :)

Thank you for this information, but where does one find this version of
ffmpeg?

Quentin.

Hi Quentin,

Recently I compiled veejay with 0.8.12 , there's tar balls here:
http://ffmpeg.org/download.html#releases

Cheers,
Niels

hi

are there are any specific flags that should be enabled for the ffmpeg compile?

thanks

ng

Quoting Niels Elburg <nwelb...@gmail.com>:

Yes, you must at least specify '--enable-shared' when you run ./configure

cheers,
