Oh, I never said that wasn't a personal opinion!
My problems with ffmpeg/codecs boil down to this:
(insomnia:build/BUILD/vlc-0.8.6c) houst0n > ./vlc -v --reset-plugins-cache
VLC media player 0.8.6c Janus
[00000001] main private warning: cannot load module
`modules/codec/ffmpeg/libffmpeg_plugin.so' (ld.so.1: vlc: fatal: relocation
error: file modules/codec/ffmpeg/libffmpeg_plugin.so: symbol img_convert:
referenced symbol not found)
img_convert is part of libavcodec, which is linked like this:
/usr/sfw/bin/gcc -shared -mimpure-text -Wl,-h,libavcodec.so.51
-L"/export/build/BUILD/SFEffmpeg-0.4.9-p20080326/i386/ffmpeg"/libavutil
-Wl,-zignore -Wl,-zcombreloc -Wl,-Bdirect -L/usr/X11/lib -R/usr/X11/lib
-L/opt/sfe/lib -o libavcodec.so.51 allcodecs.o audioconvert.o bitstream.o
bitstream_filter.o dsputil.o eval.o faanidct.o imgconvert.o (blah blah blah)
^^ which contains img_convert
Both have been built with -fPIC so hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, not sure really.
Any suggestions list?
I'll prob keep playing with it
