No special option. You need to have the development libraries for SDL installed. On RedHat-type Linux distributions: SDL-devel (in addition to SDL). On Debian-type distributions such as Ubuntu: libsdl1.2-dev (in addition to libsdl1.2). A nice check: If you had SDL installed correctly, ffplay would have been built as well. (SDL is the only extra dependency ffplay has.) Moritz _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
