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

    Here's the thing I find odd- I used to able to download videos from Y T (or other sources) in mp4 format and put them on my iPod. Now, after upgrading to iTunes 10.5 and re-installing XP most mp4's need some sort of conversion before they can play perfectly on my iPod. It's a pain-in-the-neck and I'm sick of it.

    As I said some other place Linux just doesn't have an easy program that'll manage music for iPod and that's why I'm stuck with that stupid Windows/iTunes stuff.

    well thats apple for you changing all sorts of things on your device behind your back, LOL, that's why people today are preferring to buy ARM/NEON dual and quad core Devices this year with a nice Linux OS installed and ready for ARM x264/ffmpeg encoding (Yes ARM with NEON SIMD devices can run "x264/ffmpeg directly" unless their default locked as standard like apple)

    well try that sample i made for you and see if it plays fine on the pod, i can give you a windows bat script that will convert all your files to that format if it plays fine i dont know bash shell script so someone else can convert that for linux use later perhaps...

    Yes, the file you provided loads and plays on the iPod perfectly.

    I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 which is where I download the Y T videos. Then I put them on a USB drive and move 'em over to Windows/iTunes.

    Frankly, I want to have as little to do with Windows as possible.

    Thank you for the help.

    Say, here's a the ffmpeg- i information from a video I downloaded. It transfers and plays on the iPod BUT the width of the video is partially cut off on the iPod screen. Any idea why?

    If you don't feel comfortable using the bleeding-edge, then you can try a recent release version. For a typical user a release version probably won't have any advantages over FFmpeg from Git other than they are called a "release" to ease any anxiety from stability concerns.

    Compiling and installing a release version is fairly similar to using FFmpeg from Git as shown in the guide. Just download your desired release version from the FFmpeg download page, extract the archive file, and then continue with the guide starting with the appropriate ./configure line.

    As for x264, there is a stable branch. x264 updates are usually pushed in one big dump every month or two. This includes fixes and other non-fix updates. The stable branch will include the most recent fixes, but the other non-fix updates won't be included in stable until the next set of updates. This allows the developers to catch any unforseen bugs that can be fixed before the next push to stable, and therefore hopefully decreasing the number of bugs encountered by the user. That's the idea at least, as I understand it, but I don't know how many bugs have actually been avoided in stable. To switch to the stable branch for x264, enter the following command before the x264 ./configure command:
    Code:
    git checkout stable
    I have succeeded in solving the git problem and moved up to the final 7th step. That's where my next problem occured. Apparently libfaac is not found (although I checked synaptic and there is an item called "libfaac0" but it's already istalled! So I've bumped into another odd problem, namely: I don't even know what the problem is
    Code:
    ****@******:~$ cd

    If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
    version from Git.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
    ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net.
    Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help
    solving the problem.

    Did you install the libfaac-dev package as shown in step 2?
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install libfaac-dev
    cd ~/ffmpeg
    make distclean
    git pull
    Then continue with the ./configure line as shown in step 7.

    ^ That's not solving it

    I went back and re-read the results and noticed something I overlooked before: that during step 2 things were not exactly going on as planned:

    The following packages have unmet dependencies:

    I went to synaptic and noticed that I wasn't able to install the files and to me the problem seems to be that there is a version discrepancy in my system. I tried to see where that came from and my suspicion is that I use certain "ppa"s or "builds" of a couple of programs including Pulseaudio. That version incompatibility seems to be the root cause of the problem so far as I can see but as I'm not expert I can't prove that. Why else is it possible that there are stuff in the repository yet I can't install them?!?!

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

    That's the most PPAs I've ever seen anyone use (I generally avoid them myself). You need to track down which one(s) is causing your problems. mc4man is usually good at navigating issues like this. Maybe he can help pinpoint which repository is to blame.

    The vorbis packages you have installed, (blue) are likely from this ppa
    https://launchpad.net/~lucid-bleed/+archive/ppa
    or this variation of
    https://launchpad.net/~lucid-bleed/+...lucidbleed-exp

    So as it stands you'd need to add either ppa to your sources, then you could install libvorbis-dev OR just go one of the pages, click on "View package details", expand the vorbis entry & download & install libvorbis-dev, it's the same in either ppa

    As far as libpulse-dev, who knows..., search out pulse in synaptic & post the complete name of your installed libpulse packages - if you highlight it, > properties you can see & maybe some additional info

    Additionally -
    In synaptic - click on the "Origin" tab on left side, this will list all your current sources & packages available & installed from - you should be able to figure some things out by highlighting the various ppa's & then seeing what you have installed from them

    If you used lucidbleed experimental to upgrade packages previously then you'd probably be better off re-enabling that ppa depending on what you installed from there.

    Overall the amount of ppa's you have enabled is fairly ripe ground for trouble, particularly if you've just done 'blanket updates', & not paid attention to what packages may have been replaced.

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

    Thanks guys I solved the step2 problems (added the ppa mc4man suggested for the vorbis stuff and downgraded/streamlined the libpulse-dev dependencies and it all went OK.

    So I went on with the steps and the next problem showed up during step 5:
