It's just
FYI, It is on my todo list to
1. restore dash16 to build VTK against the old FFMPEG
2. potentially setup a new dashboard that builds against at least a more
recent version.

Perhaps a dashboard which always checks out the most recent version of ffmpeg
and tries to build against it? Would it be worthwhile to offer the user the
choice of downloading and building the most recent ffmpeg (and perhaps also the
last known-to-work revision) as an ExternalProject?

BTW, does anybody here know how to reliably encode a movie for embedding in
PowerPoint slides?
I've used these to convert a set of png's saved by PV, it's the second
line that makes the MS compatible movie.
fmpeg -loop_output 0 -qscale 1 -r 20 -b 9600 -i tpar.%04d.png tpar_vr.mp4
ffmpeg -i tp
Hi,
I'd like to suggest the attached patch as a starting point. It gets PV compiled
again against ffmpeg svn head. On 32 and 64 bit Linux and 64 bit Solaris systems
I did not observe any side effects yet (using gcc only to compile PV, though).
