To compile ffmpeg with x264, you don't need the x264 binary, but the libx264 headers and library. If you use apt-get, then you probably have to install also a package called x264-dev or x264-devel or libx264-dev or similar. I'm sure there are howtos in the ubuntu community. I would compile x264 from current sources though, simply to get the latest and greatest version. _______________________________________________ Libav-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-user
