Blundering around trying things, I was able to configure with: ./configure --enable-gui=gtk --enable-media=gst,ffmpeg
[The ./configure doc should be revised to let people know that they can enable more than one media option.] The first time, it complained: ERROR: No FFMPEG development package installed! You can install FFMPEG from http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu or .deb users: apt-get install libavformat-dev or .rpm users: yum install ffmpeg-devel or reconfigure with --enable-media=gst configure: error: Please install required packages So I installed that, and the second time, it complained again: ERROR: You have version 52.20.1 of ffmpeg installed, with no swscale enabled. This setup isn't supported! Version 51.11.0 or newer is required, enabling swscale if >= 52.0.0. You can install libswscale from http://ffmpeg.org or .deb users: apt-get install libswscale-dev configure: error: Please install required packages It should have suggested this (at least for "deb users") the first time. And when suggesting that people compile and install ffmpeg from scratch, it would be useful to tell them what options you require enabled in such a build -- the first time around.
