Re: Dud rows of pixels with ffmpeg-static

Hi. Thanks for digging around. That would certainly explain it. I remember seeing the brainfart messages last time, but I'm not seeing them this time. I tried the static ffmpeg again, but saw the dud pixels again. Very odd. I've just upgraded Ubuntu and it now has ffmpeg 0.7.2, so I'll try

Hi there. I have found out about the FFMPEG problem with watching get_iplayer MP4s on a PS3 (video plays fast and with no sound). I have got a problem in that I upgraded latest get_iplayer and forgot to roll back the FFMPEG version. 1. Is there anyway I can tell which video files are affected

I had got_iplayer working OK under Ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit Desktop Netbook Edition). Then suddenly it stopped working: usual problem was it hung when recording. I messed around a lot (including using versions 2.79 2.80) and it started working again - I think it was due to removing rtmpdump! I do

I had this problem and found it was due to the version of ffmpeg.exe being used. I downgraded to this one: FFmpeg version SVN-r22140-Sherpya, Copyright (c) 2000-2010 the FFmpeg developers built on Mar 2 2010 03:26:44 with gcc 4.2.5 20080919 (prerelease) [Sherpya] libavutil 50. 9.

I can't quite remember how I was able to tell I file was bad, I think I was using one of ffmpeg's own tools ffprobe? to view the file data. Unfortunately I've deleted the bad files now so don't have one to look at. If you compare the bad files against good ones, you should be able to spot

Re: get_iplayer Digest, Vol 18, Issue 25

Hi. Okay, I built ffmpeg version 0.8.3 as suggested :) The only gotcha is for some bizarre reason the ubuntu forum instructions on how to compile it bizarrely install everything to /usr/local/bin, so it is not found. I simply added -prefix=/usr to the configure options and then it all works.

It works OK for me. And other R4 is working OK also. I use the command prompt in linux and have found no problems. This does not help, sadly, except to confirm that there is not a generic BBC R4/Ex problem. Clive On 17/10/11 12:54, Jeremy Bartle wrote: Hi Everyone, I have the latest
