Not necessarely. Transcode supports *A LOT* of things, but nothing prevents you (... I hope)! to install, maybe under /usr/local, a stripped version of transcode with only the minimal support for your specific task. To build succesfully transcode, you will need - the usual toolchain (gcc, make, binutils, automake, autoconf, libtool, glibc development packages) - the core dependencies: ffmpeg libraries (use --enable-shared!) and libmpeg2 (remember to install the development packages!) - the other dependencies needed for your task: probably ImageMagick libraries (again, remember to install development packages!) should suffice. The trickiest part is to ./configure and install ffmpeg libraries, since they supports a lot of formats. I could'nt provide generic pointers (... without being too much generic to be useful ;)), just check out carefully the ffmpeg's ./configure output (and use --enable-shared!) > I'm going to look for the docs online to get this worked. Thank you for > your advice! You're welcome. Unfortunately I can provide very little help for building stage, but I'll love to help you for transcode part, i.e. fixing 3gp support if needed.
