There are only two ways to encode to DivX on Linux -- either with
divx.com's official codec, or with ffmpeg's libavcodec. The latter
cannot be used as a shared library, as far as I know, so maybe kino
looks for the former. Try downloading it from divx.com and installing.

Hmm??

ffmpeg]$ ./configure --help | grep shar
  --enable-shared  build shared libraries [default=no]
[hetz@dugmanit ffmpeg]$ pwd
/home/hetz/ffmpeg

You can use either Divx's Networks own codec or ffmpeg's own codec (although I 
think there's a small problem with it in the first frame, I forwarded the 
details to Fabrice - ffmpeg's author) using the mencoder from the mplayer 
package, or use ffmpeg itself as a capture/convertor etc...

BTW: Stay tuned for more surprised from ffmpeg..

Thanks,
Hetz

Hi,

I have been experimenting with kino a bit, and noticed that some of the 
supposedly available mpeg export formats (DivX, generic MPEG2 and possibly 
more) are not available. I assume I am missing some libraries, but do not 
have the slightest clue asto which ones. The manual doesn't say anything 
about them. Any tips?
