Help installing ffmpeg on freebsd
The ffmpeg in ports is an old version and does not include wmv3 support
ffmpeg-dev has wmv3 but does not work with ffmpeg-php.

So im trying to compile it from source

i used cvs to download it
ran ./configure
install instructions tell me to run 'make' next
but that errors right away
i googled and found the solution was to run 'gmake' instead

This gives me this error which i have been trying to fix for hours with no luck

gcc -O3 -g -Wall -Wno-switch -pthread -I.. -I'/usr/download/ffmpeg' -I'/usr/download/ffmpeg'/libavcodec -DHAVE_AV_CONFIG_H -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -c -o grab_bktr.o grab_bktr.c
In file included from grab_bktr.c:30:
/usr/include/machine/ioctl_meteor.h:33:2: warning: #warning Include dev/bktr/ioctl_meteor.h instead of this header.
In file included from grab_bktr.c:31:
/usr/include/machine/ioctl_bt848.h:33:2: warning: #warning Include dev/bktr/ioctl_bt848.h instead of this header.
grab_bktr.c:33:2: invalid preprocessing directive #elseif
grab_bktr.c:34:44: dev/video/meteor/ioctl_meteor.h: No such file or directory
grab_bktr.c:35:41: dev/video/bktr/ioctl_bt848.h: No such file or directory
gmake[1]: *** [grab_bktr.o] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/download/ffmpeg/libavformat'
gmake: *** [lib] Error 2

i have tried this on 2 seperate pcs.
freebsd 5.3 and freebsd 5.4

Please help!

Seems like your ffmpeg has not been ported to FreeBSD 5. You have to do it yourself...
It may be as simple as correcting the wrong paths:
Code:
$ cd /sys
$ find . -name ioctl_meteor.h
./alpha/include/ioctl_meteor.h
./dev/bktr/ioctl_meteor.h
./i386/include/ioctl_meteor.h
$ find . -name ioctl_bt848.h 
./alpha/include/ioctl_bt848.h
./dev/bktr/ioctl_bt848.h
./i386/include/ioctl_bt848.h
$

But there may be much more work involved. Check the readme and website if it contains any special FreeBSD notes.

Also, check what the ports maintainer did. There's patch files in your /usr/ports/???/ffmpeg/ folder somewhere.

HTH,
M.

I'm trying to install a php video script that the programmer says needs ffmpeg on my hostbandit.com php/mysql hosting account.

Does anyone have step by step instructions on how to install ffmpeg-php on freebsd?

Do you have root access on this box. If not, you can't install it yourself and will need to tell your provider to do it for you.

Since my problem requiers thesame threadname, I'll use this one.

I'm running FreeBSD 6.0 and am trying to install ffmpeg using PORT.
This is fairly simple exept I don't know how to enable amr-support.
I need to know:
Where to dump the amr library from http://www.3gpp.org
How to indicate to PORT that I need amr enabled.

I've already tried following the instructions from:
http://julian.coccia.com/blog/index.php?m=200409&more=1
(libavcodec/amr/typedefs.h doesn't understand my platform)
and:
http://www.niemueller.de/wiki/index.php?ConvertVideoTo3GP
(compiles, but can't do audio. can't even recognize its own 3gp files unless audio disabled)

If anyone could shed some light?

I just installed FreeBSD6.1 and I was able to find it at /usr/ports/multimedia/ffmpeg or go to freshports.org/multimedia/ffmpeg/ for more information. I hope it can help.
