This is how I got things to compile last time I tried (assuming you
use a similar file structure as I do in your MSYS setup):

Go to [http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/download.html] and download the ``bare sources'' (file ffmpeg-export-snapshot.tar.bz2).

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --disable-static --extra-cflags="-mno-cygwin -mms-bitfields" --extra-ldflags="-Wl,--add-stdcall-alias" --enable-memalign-hack --disable-ffserver --disable-ffplay

Berkeley MPEG Encoder: This is a little utility (aka ppmtompeg) used by r.out.mpeg to generate animated sequences of raster maps.

Unfortunately, the current code on the project's homepage [http://bmrc.berkeley.edu/frame/research/mpeg/mpeg_encode.html] is not compatible with MinGW.

Thus, the easiest way to install this is to use the port of the ``NetPbm for Windows'' tools, of which ppmtompeg is a part. Go to [http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/netpbm.htm] and download the ``Binaries'' and ``Dependencies'' zip files (netpbm-10.27-bin.zip and netpbm-10.27-dep.zip) to any folder. Extract the files ppmtompeg.exe and libnetpbm10.dll from the first zip file to C:\msys\1.0\bin. Extract the file jpeg62.dll from the second zip file to C:\msys\1.0\bin.


Configure GRASS:

--with-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-includes="/usr/include/libavcodec /usr/include/libavformat" --with-ffmpeg-libs=/usr/bin

However, if I remember right, compilation then crashes for
OGSF lib and thus no NVIZ :(

However, maybe you will have better luck with the latest sources.

Good luck,

Ben

You need to run configure with the --with-ffmpeg switch, and possibly
the --with-ffmpeg-includes= and/or --with-ffmpeg-libs= switches.

I would expect that you need --with-ffmpeg-includes=, as the headers
normally get installed into a subdirectory, but the headers don't
specify the subdirectory when they include each other.

I built ffmpeg enabling shared and disabling static libraries, but
enabling shared produces only libavutil, libavcodec and libavformat as
DLLs, and not a ffmpeg DLL, as I roughly expected (I checked on the
official ffmpeg web site, that's normal, there is any ffmpeg.dll
mentioned)

That's correct (on Linux, I also have libpostproc, but that isn't
required by any of the other libraries).

Configure checks for the headers avcodec.h, avformat.h and swscale.h,
for the function avcodec_init with -lavcodec (and optionally
-lavutil), and for the function av_set_parameters with -lavformat (and
optionally -lavutil).

If using --with-ffmpeg results in configure errors, and you used any
necessary --with-ffmpeg-includes= and/or --with-ffmpeg-libs= switches,
then look in config.log for any error messages.
