I did compile ffmpeg from svn. medibuntu repositories for karmic don't have ffmpeg Here's what I did svn checkout svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg cd ffmpeg ./configure --enable-nonfree --enable-gpl --enable-pthreads --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-version3 --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libxvid make && make install I could not enable libx264 as ffmpeg required x264 to be greater than 0.78 compared to 0.67 and 0.65 available in the repositories. FYI, i have svn release 20428. -- ubuntu-in mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
