Video Generation Failed! - undefined symbol: av_free_packet

Post by Arkadi »

Hi all.

I compiled and install ZM v1.24.2 with the latest ffmpeg on pure clean Ubuntu 9.04 AND IT`S WORKED PERFECTLY including video generation.

Then I install some other programs like SMPlayer and ets.
As a result I find Video Generation Failed!

mpeg video streams in browser work fine

Don't install those programs or build ZM with the same version of ffmpeg that those programs use.

Well, I purge SMPlayer and all it's packets
libamrnb3{a} libamrwb3{a} libggi-target-x{a} libggi2{a} libgii1{a} libgii1-target-x{a} liblzo2-2{a} libopenal1{a} libsvga1{a} mplayer{a} mplayer-skins{a} smplayer smplayer-themes{a}
Then update x264 and ffmpeg...
Result is the same - Video Generation Failed

I think, the problem is in the command of ZM video generation. It try to use some codec in a wrong place.

I'm also getting this error in the ffmpeg.log

/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libavdevice.so.52: undefined symbol: av_free_packet

Did you resolve this? I'm using a Ubuntu 9.04 server install.

Thanks!

No, I'm not. I understand that for getting it work properly I should compliance codecs with other applications. It's seems to complicated if you use you system not only as a video surveillance server.
