Windows dependencies slightly out of date - bad link and missing file #2127

Closed gabrielDiaz-performlab closed 3 years ago

https://github.com/pupil-labs/pupil/blob/master/docs/dependencies-windows.md

The ffmpeg link is broken, and postproc-55.dll is no longer a part of the latest builds. This does not appear to cause pupil to craash when run from source.

Unfortunately, https://ffmpeg.org/download.html only offers two sources:

The former does not provide the required DLL files. The latter has the following Release Retention Policy:

The last build of each month is kept for two years. The last 14 daily builds are kept.

I guess we linked to a daily build.

@performlabrit could you please check if this build works for you? https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases/tag/autobuild-2021-03-31-12-39

Yes, that linked worked. You might also point out that they should get the lgpl shared binaries, and not vulkan or gpl binaries, if that matters. I don't believe that information was not explicitly provided in the instructions, but was evident if one inspected the dead link.
