Hi.

Yep, read all the notes I can find on the site, forums, Wiki and doco.

Problem relates to configure generation:
II can't find my libavformat.a & libavcodec.a even though they are cached (ldconfig -v | grep libav proves it is seen by the system). I have installed ffmpeg-0.4.9.9152-6.2.

I have placed the libraries in /usr/local/lib and additionally into /lib. But no joy

Neither library is seen by the configuration process.
I tried using the extralibs directive but no go, same issue.
What to do ?

Thanks Grahame.

Did you insltall ffmpeg from source or RPM?
Where do you get the error in zm?
If RPM, did you install ffmpeg-dev?
If from source did you run Make install-libs?

Yes, definately install from source. Much easier.

Code: Select all

svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
cd ffmpeg/
./configure
make
make install
make install-libs
