Hello,

I think I'll update it to work with FFmpeg 3.x and clean up it in future because it's just trivial building (depricated functions) issue to get it working and merged but cleaning is something that needs more merging time.

Hi Tuukka,

we normally use Ubuntu as reference which package version we should support and which not.

Our build system runs on Ubuntu 14.4 (Trusty)
Mixxx has dropped Ubuntu 12.4 (Precise) support due to the introduction of c++11.

So it would be nice, If we continue to support Trusty.
Unfortunately the switch back to ffmpeg happens after Trusty.

In Trusty there is:
libav 6:9.18-0ubuntu0.14.04.1
with libavcodec54  54.35.0

So it looks like you can remove some of the #ifdefs, if they are itching.

Kind regards,

Daniel.

    Hello,

    I'm probably the other one (other one is my evil twin) of two who are
    using the FFmpeg input plugin with Mixxx but I'll try to ask this
    before
    doing anything. Currently FFmpeg supports versions from 0.8 up (my
    testing) 3.0 and same amount of AVconv versions.

    Now as semiofficial FFmpeg input plugin user, developer and
    maintainer I
    like to ask. Which is the lowest version that we should support? Below
    version 1.2 are probably the most problematic because after that they
    changed how samples are in memory. This causes little more #ifdef
    magic
    that I like to see in code.

    Are people even using old and crusty versions of FFmpeg anymore?
    Please
    have time to answer because if there is now very vocal majority I'll
    remove that support when I clean FFmpeg 3.0 compile errors. AVConv is
    going a way from Debian and Ubuntu so there is no problems with that
    front anymore because removing below 1.2 support will cause Ubuntu
    12.04
    and probably 14.04 stop working.

    Sincerely,

    Tuukka
