Thank you so much Tzafrir, it all make sense to me now.
I'll follow your tips and let you know if it works.

I'm sorry if I gave conflicting information but I didn't setup this
specific freepbx/asterisk and I'm not sure if it was compiled from
source, probably not, but I'll have to double check it the person
that installed it. I know that I currently running asterisk 1.4.13
+ FreePBX 2.9.0.7 on CentOS 5 x64.
I need to compile app_mp4 and I've read that I need to compile
asterisk from source in order to achieve this, does this make any
sense ?
Maybe. I believe that the headers of Asterisk (installed to
/usr/include/asterisk ) include anything you need to build an external
module. Though I wouldn't be completely surprised if those were not
complete in 1.4.13 .
I'm following a tutorial on how to compile app_mp4 at
http://web.archive.org/web/20090322060930/http://sip.fontventa.com/content/view/15/44/,
Furthermore, they instruct you to re-run configure, but then they don't
really rely on that and manually add the extra libraries to the build
line. I don't see why you'll need to re-run configure if you already
have the built source directory.
Building it independently would be something along the lines of:
gcc $CFLAGS -DAST_MODULE="app_mp4" -shared -o app_mp4.so app_mp4.c -lmp4
-lmp4v2
Where CFLAGS would typically be -O2 and such.
This should hopefully build you app_mp4.so . Next, make sure it does not
load automatically until you verified it to work: in modules.conf:
unload => app_mp4.so
At this point you may crash Asterisk. So do it in the off-hours or on a
different instance.
Try loading it manually in the Asterisk CLI:
module load app_mp4.so
Check if it actually works.
If all goes well, disable the "unload" entry in modules.conf .
