Yesterday I installed MacPorts, and this night I had my pBook
crunch out some pretty big installation (ffmpeg with a list of
codecs). I turned to MacPorts because I gave up on installing all
the video/audio codec libraries my hand.
I actually want to use PyMedia (which is based upon ffmpeg, and
which needs all the same codec libraries).
However, since my python lives in /url/local/bin/python and
python's package installer easy_install lives in /Library/
Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/bin/easy_install they do
not recognize or find the codec libraries installed in /opt/local/bin
To install ffmpeg I installed this:
% sudo port install ffmpeg +lame +libogg +vorbis +xvid +x264 +a52
+faac +faad +dts
But
% sudo easy_install PyMedia
is still saying:
OGG : not found
VORBIS : not found
FAAD : not found
MP3LAME : not found
VORBISENC : not found
ALSA : not found
How can I mix libraries installed with MacPorts, with normal
installed packages?
Or how can I have python / easy_install recognize the libraries in /
opt/local/bin?
Not sure how to install pymedia, having never heard of it. But
presumably you just have to tell pymedia where to find the MacPorts-
installed libraries, which as you know are under /opt/local. Ask the
pymedia folks how to do that.
Once you figure it out, you might want to consider contributing a
portfile for pymedia, so that in the future you (and everyone else
interested in pymedia) can just say "sudo port install pymedia" to
get it.
