VLC with ffmpeg can't transcode MPEG4.
I have been trying to compile a version of VLC which would correctly stream and transcode media with the settings of MPEG4 + AAC (video/audio). The normal response from package versions is the following:
Ok, so using the a guide constructed by one of the VLC devs I created a script to install and compile everything under the sun necessary for VLC in 9.04.Code:p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } Streaming / Transcoding failed: VLC could not open the encoder.
When I run this script (and come back 8 hours later), VLC is compiled but it crashes on playback of a test .avi.Code:#!/bin/bash # # http://juliensimon.blogspot.com/2008/12/howto-compiling-ffmpeg-x264-mp3-xvid.html mkdir /opt/build cd /opt/build/ apt-get install subversion git git-core -y svn checkout svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/jaunty.list --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list apt-get update apt-get install medibuntu-keyring --force-yes -y apt-get update apt-get install libgpac-dev nasm libfaac-dev libfaac0 libfaad-dev libfaad0 libschroedinger-dev libtheora-dev libtheora0 libvorbis-dev libvorbis0a libvorbisenc2 libvorbisfile3 libxv-dev libxvmc-dev libmp3lame-dev libmp3lame0 libgsm-tools libgsmme-dev libdirac-dev libdirac0c2a libdc1394-13 libdc1394-13-dev libopenjpeg-dev libopenjpeg2 libspeex-dev libspeex1 libspeexdsp-dev libspeexdsp1 libamrnb-dev libamrwb-dev g++ libavc1394-dev libraw1394-dev libdc1394-13-dev libdvdread-dev libdvdnav-dev libdvdcss2 libdvdcss-dev libfaad-dev libtwolame-dev liba52-dev libvcdinfo-dev libiso9660-dev libcddb2-dev libflac-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev liblua5.1-0-dev libgnomevfs2-dev libtag1-dev libqt4-dev libfribidi-dev libhal-dev libmtp-dev libshout3-dev libdvbpsi5 libdvbpsi5-dev libv4l-dev zvbi libzvbi-dev libpulse-dev libxcb-keysyms0-dev --force-yes -y apt-get upgrade -y wget http://transact.dl.sourceforge.net/project/opencore-amr/opencore-amr/0.1.2/opencore-amr-0.1.2.tar.gz tar xvf opencore-amr-0.1.2.tar.gz rm opencore-amr-0.1.2.tar.gz cd opencore-amr-0.1.2 ./configure make #checkinstall --fstrans=no --install=yes --pkgname="libopencore-amr" --pkgversion="0.1.2" --backup=no --default #ldconfig make install cd .. wget http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/releases/yasm-0.7.2.tar.gz tar xvfz yasm-0.7.2.tar.gz rm yasm-0.7.2.tar.gz cd yasm-0.7.2 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local make sudo make install cd .. svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/nut/src/trunk/ nut cd nut make make install cd .. git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git cd x264 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-shared make #checkinstall --pkgname=x264 --pkgversion "1:0.svn`date +%Y%m%d`" --backup=no --default make install cd .. wget http://downloads.xvid.org/downloads/xvidcore-1.2.2.tar.gz tar xvfz xvidcore-1.2.2.tar.gz rm xvidcore-1.2.2.tar.gz cd xvidcore/build/generic ./configure --prefix=/usr/local make make install cd .. cd .. cd .. cd ffmpeg ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-gpl --enable-nonfree --enable-shared --enable-postproc --enable-avfilter --enable-avfilter-lavf --enable-pthreads --enable-x11grab --enable-bzlib --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-version3 --enable-libdc1394 --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-libfaadbin --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libnut --enable-libschroedinger --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-zlib #--enable-libtheora # --enable-libgsm make make install cd ..

Main point and question being, what do I have to do to enable VLC to stream and transcode any media into the MPEG4 + AAC format?
BTW, I have tried this thread --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 with a fresh install on 9.10 and still no dice.
