Public bug reported: "avconv -encoders | grep vp" gives only : V... libvpx libvpx VP8 (codec vp8)
It does not give the encoder libvpx-vp9, which seems to be necessary to encode with VP9. Or maybe I missed something? Based on http://git.libav.org/?p=libav.git;a=commit;h=9aa053ceded5550b2e538578af383fd89d82364c , VP9 is available in libvpx since version 1.3.0 , which is the version libav is built with : http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/libvpx1 VP9 is also mentioned in the changelog of the libvpx1 package : http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/libv/libvpx/libvpx_1.3.0-2/changelog Same issue when trying to read a file with VP9 codec. I tried with http://base-n.de/webm/out9.webm "avplay out9.webm" gives : [matroska,webm @ 0x7f1a80005be0] Unknown/unsupported AVCodecID V_VP9 ** Affects: libav (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1296378 Title: Activate VP9 codec in libav To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libav/+bug/1296378/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
