I built vlc a week or so ago on BLFS-svn-20180808, using the
previous (February) x264 snapshot. With the current snapshot, vlc
fails to build:
CC codec/libx264_plugin_la-x264.lo
codec/x264.c: In function 'Open':
codec/x264.c:849:26: error: 'x264_bit_depth' undeclared (first use in this
function); did you mean 'x264_picture_t'?
const int mask = x264_bit_depth > 8 ? X264_CSP_HIGH_DEPTH : 0;
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
x264_picture_t
codec/x264.c:849:26: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for
each function it appears in
make[4]: *** [Makefile:22479: codec/libx264_plugin_la-x264.lo] Error 1
I had failed to build the newer x264 a couple of days ago (thought I'd picked it
up, but I hadn't), so today I picked it up and compared: version was
152, now 155 (and everything using it links to the exact version, so
I had to also recompile gst-plugins-ugly, ffmpeg, transcode).
Possible patch at https://patches.videolan.org/patch/19895/ which
can be achieved with:
sed -i 's/\(>= 118\)/\1 \&\& X264_BUILD < 153/' modules/codec/x264.c
That fixes it.
What I find WORRYING about this is that vlc has already been tagged
for 8.3.
I suppose somebody built it without x264, which is labelled as
optional, but not using x264 seems pointless to me (a lot of videos
use Advanced Video Codec from h264 or x264, particularly mp4
videos).
