Hi Ryan,

I have uninstalled everything and started again. Installing mpeg4ip and mkvtoolnix
first, followed by ffmpeg, a52, faac, faad, lame, x264 and xvid.

I am not sure if this is the right place for this next question, but hopefully you or
someone else may have encountered this next problem.

I have been able to extract a video track from and .mkv file, but when I try to convert
the audio to aac using the following:

ffmpeg -i file.mkv -vn -acodec aac -ac 2 audio.aac

 I get  'unknown encoder aac'

It seems to start alright with the following:
FFmpeg version UNKNOWN, Copyright (c) 2000-2008 Fabrice Bellard, et al.
configuration: --prefix=/opt/local --disable-vhook --mandir=/opt/ local/share/man --enable-shared --enable-pthreads --disable-mmx -- cc=gcc-4.0 --enable-gpl --enable-liba52

built on Sep 27 2008 00:52:03, gcc: 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5370)

followed by many lines of this:

[matroska @ 0x1802800]Ignoring seekhead entry for ID=0x1654ae6b
[matroska @ 0x1802800]Ignoring seekhead entry for ID=0x114d9b74

and ends with:
Input #0, matroska, from '/Users/TWcomputer/vid_convert/Thomson/ Thomson_WMV-HD_720p.mkv':

    Stream #0.2: Audio: vorbis, 44100 Hz, stereo
Unknown encoder 'aac'

I am not sure if ffmpeg has its own encoder or if it should try to use faac. Can anyone suggest how to
solve this one.

Thanks,

Terrence

I am now trying to install mpeg4ip. During the build process, I get the following message:
mp4.h is being used by the active faac port. Please deactivate this
port first, or use the -f flag to force the activation.

What is the best option? if I force the installation, does the install overwrite the mp4.h file or the link that faac has to that file. As I have not forced installed before, am I right
in thinking that the command is 'sudo port -f install mpeg4ip'.

If deactivate is the way to go, is the command 'port disable faac'. I searched the
macPorts info but I did not see a disable command.

The message means faac and mpeg4ip both want to install the same file (mp4.h). Is the contents of these two files the same? If not, then faac and mpeg4ip cannot be activate at the same time. Do you need both? You may need to file a ticket so the maintainers of these two ports can resolve this conflict. Unfortunately, mpeg4ip has no maintainer, but maybe the maintainer of faac can take care of it.
