ffmpegthumbnailer refuses to compile.. ffmpeg error ?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Pulled the latest source from SVN (currently rev 140)
2. used ./autogen.sh , then ./configure with no problems listed
3. make then fails to compile

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

My error output looks in part like :
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so: undefined reference to `lame_set_VBR_q'
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so: undefined reference to `lame_init'
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so: undefined reference to `theora_encode_init'
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so: undefined reference to `NeAACDecInit2'
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so: undefined reference to `pthread_join'

A full output is attached

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Revision 140 on Ubuntu 8.10  Kernel: 2.6.27-11-server
Using ffmpeg version 18074

Please provide any additional information below.

My ffmpeg is configured with --enable-gpl --enable-postproc
--enable-pthreads --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-libmp3lame
--enable-libtheora --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid

Is this just a problem with ffmpegthumbnailer not finding ffmpeg libs ? 
ffmpeg is found and used by many other programs also installed and
compiled, using default dirs.

On further review, It could have been the fact I had another apt-get installed
version of ffmpegthumbnailer installed.  i removed and purged, and now have this
error with the latest ffmpeg (svn 18272)

libffmpegthumbnailer/moviedecoder.cpp: In member function void
MovieDecoder::createAVFrame(AVFrame**, int, int, int):
libffmpegthumbnailer/moviedecoder.cpp:371: error: invalid conversion from int to
PixelFormat
libffmpegthumbnailer/moviedecoder.cpp:371: error:   initializing argument 1 of 
int
avpicture_get_size(PixelFormat, int, int)

Can you confirm that this fails against release 0.5 of ffmpeg?

I purged all ffmpeg installs, I pulled and compiled ffmpeg 05 with --enable-gpl
--enable-postproc --enable-pthreads --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad
--enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid
--enable-libvorbis

I needed to manually make libswscale.   ffmpegthumbnailer finds ffmpeg on 
configure,
but make now fails in the exact way as my original report :

make[1]: Entering directory `/sources/ffmpegthumbnailer'
/bin/bash ./libtool --tag=CXX   --mode=link g++  -g -O2   -o ffmpegthumbnailer 
main.o
libffmpegthumbnailer.la
libtool: link: g++ -g -O2 -o .libs/ffmpegthumbnailer main.o 
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so -L/usr/local/lib -lavutil -lavformat -lavcodec
-lpng12 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so
./.libs/libffmpegthumbnailer.so: undefined reference to `theora_encode_comment'

..etc

this might be related to the install method.  I normally use sudo checkinstall 
after
make, but i recently just did a straight 'sudo make install' and it seems to 
compile
fine.

Going back to check the latest ffmpeg svn

Using ffmpeg 0.5, i can compile ffmpegthumbnailer with no trouble.  the latest 
svn
(18274) failes with :

libffmpegthumbnailer/moviedecoder.cpp: In member function âvoid
MovieDecoder::createAVFrame(AVFrame**, int, int, int):
libffmpegthumbnailer/moviedecoder.cpp:371: error: invalid conversion from int to
PixelFormat
libffmpegthumbnailer/moviedecoder.cpp:371: error:   initializing argument 1 of 
int
avpicture_get_size(PixelFormat, int, int)

Ok, then there has been an API change. I'll look into it. Thanks for trying it 
out!

Just throwing this in:  When I just use a straight ./configure on the latest 
svn of
ffmpeg, i get the error in line 371.

When i use my typical configure line --enable-gpl --enable-postproc 
--enable-pthreads
--enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora
--enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-libvorbis --enable-swscale

i get the errors attached in my first comment on the latest svn OR version .05

The version from the trunk should compile again against the latest ffmpeg.

The other errors you are getting can't be solved in ffmpegthumbnailer. I just 
set the
cflags and ldflags as they are supplied by ffmpeg through pkg-config.

I can confirm that the latest build will now compile with the latest svn of 
ffmpeg. 
but for the life of me i can't figure out why it refuses to compile if i pass 
any
options to the ffmpeg configuration
