[Alain Barthélemy]

Bonsoir,

Ci-dessous un petit dialogue avec la liste transcode_users (Erik
Slater). Paquet ffmpeg apparemment mal configuré par le dénommé
Christian Marillat. A part donner un coup de pied au c.. à Christian
comme suggéré par Erik Slagter, je ne vois plus que compilé moi-même
ffmpeg (sauf si quelqu'un a une autre source?). Compiler et installer un
programme ne me pose pas trop de problème. C'est ainsi que je fais avec
MPlayer et sane sous SuSE sauf qu'il me faut trouver, sous Debian Sarge
les paquets nécessaires pour faire tourner ./configure, make et make
install. Si quelqu'un peut juste le/les nommer?

AB

So it's probably Christian (Marillat) that screwed up! Shame on him ;-)

I suppose he compiled ffmpeg with configure option --disable-risky or
without --enable-gpl so several codecs are missing.

There are two solutions:

1) get ffmpeg yourself, compile and install it. Always only use CVS, no
"snapshots" or "releases"

2) kick Christian's butt ;-)
