    Umm - I don't get it.
    What I have basically done is buy preinstalled Linux laptops from Linux Emporium - and iPlayer works.
    What is this brokenness people talk about?

    Thank you. I am glad this guide has been useful to others and helped spread the word about such useful tools.

    Re: HOWTO: Install and use the latest FFmpeg and x264

    Hi all,

    Thanks for this great tutorial.

    I followed each and every step and I get this message after the last command :
    bash: hash: ffmpeg: not found

    I don't know it this is a problem or not since I'm a total noob to this. Tried googling around and searching the forum but got nowhere...

    Any ideas ? Did I miss something ? Should I uninstall and try to reinstall the whole thing (that's probably what I'm gonna try to do in the meantime...).

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Ubuntu Lucid Lynx fresh install on AMD64.

    Hi again,

    Just did what I said in my last post. Uninstalled and reinstalled and it all went smooooth (don't ask me what happened the first time...).

    Well, I can now join the happy campers club here and say : Thanks a bunch, FakeOutdoorsman !!!!

    Now, I'll get to work

    Re: HOWTO: Install and use the latest FFmpeg and x264

    Hmm... I've followed all these instructions, but whenever I try to convert a PNG sequence to a movie file I get the message
    "Error opening filters!"

    What does this mean?

    What is the command you're trying to run?
    「明後日の夕方には帰ってるからね。」

    Also can you show the complete FFmpeg output from your command?

    Hi mrfreen,

    From ffmpeg faq:
    3.2 How do I encode single pictures into movies?

    First, rename your pictures to follow a numerical sequence. For example, img1.jpg, img2.jpg, img3.jpg,... Then you may run:

    ffmpeg -f image2 -i img%d.jpg /tmp/a.mpg

    Notice that `%d' is replaced by the image number.

    `img%03d.jpg' means the sequence `img001.jpg', `img002.jpg', etc...

    If you have large number of pictures to rename, you can use the following command to ease the burden. The command, using the bourne shell syntax, symbolically links all files in the current directory that match *jpg to the `/tmp' directory in the sequence of `img001.jpg', `img002.jpg' and so on.

    x=1; for i in *jpg; do counter=$(printf %03d $x); ln "$i" /tmp/img"$counter".jpg; x=$(($x+1)); done

    If you want to sequence them by oldest modified first, substitute $(ls -r -t *jpg) in place of *jpg.

    Then run:

    ffmpeg -f image2 -i /tmp/img%03d.jpg /tmp/a.mpg

    The same logic is used for any image format that ffmpeg reads.

    Re: HOWTO: Install and use the latest FFmpeg and x264

    Thanks! I was trying to use wildcards (e.g. *.png instead of %04d.png).

    Working now. Thanks again!


    Hmmm... new problem...
    Now it's segfaulting when I try to make an x264 file.
    Here's what I'm sending it:
    ffmpeg -y -shortest -r 24 -i PNG/480/%08d.png -i audio.wav -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -ac 2 -vcodec libx264 -vpre slow -crf 22 -threads 0 mp4/sintel_trailer-480p.mp4
    and here's what it's giving me:
