Codecs installed but not being seen by WinFF #23

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installed winff with dependencies form from the
http://ppa.launchpad.net/paul-climbing/ubuntu hardy main repository

2. This installed libxvid and libx264

3. Installed the preset.xml with the psp settings.

4.  Selected XVid for PSP (4x3) and the Experience Ubuntu.ogg (Mandela file
in Examples) file for testing 

5.  Clicked Convert

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected a video file that I can play on a PSP

See Instead:
Error Message:  Unknown Codec 'libxvid'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
WinFF 0.43 on Ubuntu 8.04.1

Please provide any additional information below.
If I go into Synaptic and search for 
libxvid and libx264 they are shown as installed.

I get the same error when I try to create H.264

Other codecs missing are:
libfaac
libmp3lame

So, it looks like even thought they are shown as being installed in
Synaptic that the following codecs are not installed
libfaac
libmp3lame
libxvid
libx264

FFmpeg must be built with it's codecs compiled in. Use the medibuntu version of 
the
ffmpeg.

bggmtt is right.

What is confusing, however, is that the codecs in ffmpeg are called the same as 
some
codecs available in Ubuntu. However, ffmpeg has ALL it's available codec in the
libavcodec-xxx packages. In Hardy support for aac/mp3/xvid/h264 is not built 
in, you
need the medibuntu version. In intrepid the ffmpeg version from the multiversum 
has
the necessary codecs in libavcodec-unstripped-51 (pulled in automatically with 
the
intrepid package via (k|x|)ubuntu-restriced-extras).

See the wiki on UbuntuInstallation.
