pyffmpeg doesn't compile with newer versions of ffmpeg

[jordanbs]

On Ubuntu 11.10, pyffmpeg doesn't compile with the version of ffmpeg in the repos. This is probably also the case with any recent build of ffmpeg.

ffmpeg version info:

Any updates on this?

This issue was a showstopper for me on one of my projects, and for now I'm completely avoiding using pyffmpeg because of that.

I really do want to see this resolved, though.

[iwuvjhdva]

It also doesn't work with latest cython.

[mhaller]

Thx for the feedback, I planned to integrate the other GitHub changes, but unfortunately I have other projects with a higher priority although pyffmpeg is still on my ToDo list ... so pushing is a good thing ;)

I too would love to see this updated. I am running into the same problem as above.

[schulmar]

Me too, it is very annoying that there are so many problems that seem to be solved easily. Also there are some forks that tried to solve them but are not up to date too.

[mhaller]

Is on a longer todo list ...

Any updates on this? Perhaps an ETA on the fix?

[mhaller]

Just to let you know I started working again on pyffmpeg. Contributions are highly appreciated!

[qingyuanluofeng]

Hello . I use this pyffmpeg and install it on windows 64 bit operating system,but it reported the errors al follows: Remember: Edit at first ffmpegpath within setup.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 84, in incdir = incdir + list(nd.get_numpy_include_dirs()) TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'list' objects Could you tell me how to slove this problem. Thanks.

[lobobabysaurus]

Any update on when this will be up to date with pyffmpeg?
