Depencies of ffmpeg #1

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Running sinthgunt on various filetype produces problems if certain
libraries are not installed. The decencies should be stated in the readme.txt.

Example:
During random test I found the following missing codec on a relatively
vanilla Ubuntu 8.04:
Unknown codec 'libfaac'
Unknown codec 'libxvid'
Unknown codec 'libx264'
Unknown codec 'libmp3lame'

Optimally we should ask the user to install all this libs at the first run.
If this is too hard we should state the dependencies in the readme.txt

How exactly do you reproduce these errors? What input files and ffmpeg commands 
were
used?

Perhaps you could add the file monkeydance.mpg to the svn repository along with 
a
.txt file containing the ffmpeg commands needed e.g.

ffmpeg -i monkeydance.mpg -vcodec xvid output.mpg

I couldn't do that - I don't have the rights to distribute that file. But I 
will show
IRL then.

A http link and the ffmpeg commands then?

I found it here: 
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=monkeydance.mpeg
:) Sorry couldn't resist. :)

The commands are in the presets.xml file but here is an example:
tjansson@bohr:~$ ffmpeg -i monkeydance.mpeg -vn -acodec libfaac -ab 112kb -ac 2

I have discovered, that to get all the codecs the present version of ffmpeg 
supports,
you just have to type "ffmpeg -format". This gives you a list

Codecs:
 D V    4xm
 D V D  8bps
 D V    VMware video
 D V D  aasc
  EA    ac3
 D A    adpcm_4xm
 DEA    adpcm_adx
 D A    adpcm_ct
 D A    adpcm_ea
 D A    adpcm_ea_r1 .... 

Here, D stands for Decode and E for Encode.

It would be "fairly" easy to include a list of nessesary codecs for each preset 
in
the presets.xml file and compare to the users version of ffmpeg. The entries in 
the
menu should then only include the ones that would actually work...

I have implemented the featured suggest in #9. Preliminary testing on a virgin 
ubuntu
install indicates that it works

For Ubuntu: if you want the above mentioned codecs you need to have
libavcodec-unstripped-51 (for intrepid) of libavcodec-unstripped-52 (for Jaunty 
and
Karmic) installed. This can be a suggest/recommends for ubuntu packages, like I 
do
for the winff project.

Good point. I will consider refering to the ffmpeg section of the page
http://code.google.com/p/winff/wiki/DebianInstallation in our wiki.
