vokoscreenNG 3.8.0 no record in mp4 format

[texstar]

I built 3.8.0 but I cannot select mp4 format. It tells me gstreamer packages need to be installed but they are already installed including the development files when I packaged the sourcecode. I am building the Qt5 version. What am I doing wrong?

The codec openh264 and or x264 is installed?

[texstar]

Yes.

lib64x264_164-1.164-3pclos2023 x264-1.164-3pclos2023 lib64x264-devel-1.164-3pclos2023

Maybe we need a newer version of x264?

[vkohaupt]

For GIF install the package:

• gstreamer-plugins-rs

For H.264

• gstreamer-X.XX-plugin-openh264
• libopenh264

For x264

• libx264-XXX
• gstreamer-plugins-ugly-codecs

[texstar]

Ahh, it appears my gstreamer-plugins-ugly is not finding the libx264 development files to build the encoder for the package. Now I know why vokoscreenNG doesn't work for us in mp4 format.

When compiling gstreamer-plugins-ugly: Dependency x264 skipped: feature x264 disabled

Thanks.
