 Posted: Tue Jan 20, 2009 7:49 am Post subject: ffplay gone AWOL |
 |
|
hi
Today, when I need to use ffplay, which always worked fine in the past, I discovered that it has gone AWOL:
| Code: |
bash: ffplay: command not found
|
locate returns the location of the doc file.
So I re-emerge ffmpeg, and lo and behold, it does not install ffplay, just ffserver and ffmpeg:
| Code: |
--- replaced obj /usr/include/libavcodec/avcodec.h
--- replaced dir /usr/include/libavcodec
--- replaced dir /usr/include
--- replaced obj /usr/bin/ffserver
--- replaced obj /usr/bin/ffmpeg
--- replaced dir /usr/bin
--- replaced dir /usr

>>> Original instance of package unmerged safely.
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
>>> Auto-cleaning packages...
>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.
|
Now why is that?
I don't know if it's relevant, but due to other known bugs with X-org and ATI drivers, I switched to the Xorg ATI drivers a week or two back... is this connected?
Thanks, Ian

gentoo etc # equery uses ffmpeg
[ Searching for packages matching ffmpeg... ]
[ Colour Code : set unset ]
[ Legend : Left column (U) - USE flags from make.conf ]
[ : Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ]
[ Found these USE variables for media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20081219 ]
U I
+ + X : Adds support for X11
+ + aac : Enables support for MPEG-4 AAC Audio
- - altivec : Adds support for optimizations for G4 and G5/ppc970 processors
+ + amr : Enables Adaptive Multi-Rate Audio support
- - bindist : Flag to enable or disable options for prebuilt (GRP) packages (eg. due to licensing issues)
- - debug : Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml
- - dirac : Enable Dirac video support (an advanced royalty-free video compression format) via the reference library: dirac.
- - doc : Adds extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc)
- - encode : Adds support for encoding of audio or video files
- - gsm : Enables support for the gsm lossy speech compression codec via libgsm.
- - hardcoded-tables : Use pre-calculated tables rather than calculating them on the fly.
- - ieee1394 : Enable FireWire/iLink IEEE1394 support (dv, camera, ...)
+ + ipv6 : Adds support for IP version 6
+ + mmx : Adds support for optimizations for Pentium MMX and Athlon class processors
- - mmxext : Enables mmx2 support
+ + mp3 : Add support for reading mp3 files
+ + network : Enables network streaming support
- - schroedinger : Enable Dirac video support (an advanced royalty-free video compression format) via libschroedinger (high-speed implementation in C of the Dirac codec).
- - sdl : Adds support for Simple Direct Layer (media library)
- - speex : Adds support for the speex audio codec (used for speech)
- - ssse3 : faster floating point optimization for SSSE3 capable chips (Intel Core 2 and later chips)
- - test : Workaround to pull in packages needed to run with FEATURES=test. Portage-2.1.2 handles this internally, so don't set it in make.conf/package.use anymore
- - theora : Adds support for the Theora Video Compression Codec
+ + threads : Adds threads support for various packages. Usually pthreads
+ + v4l : Enables video4linux support
- - v4l2 : Enable video4linux2 support
- - vhook : Enables video hooking support.
+ + vorbis : Adds support for the OggVorbis audio codec
- - x264 : Enable h264 encoding using x264
- - xvid : Adds support for xvid.org's open-source mpeg-4 codec
+ + zlib : Adds support for zlib (de)compression

Other stuff which may or may not be relevant:
1. I recently switched gcc versions up to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.2
2. When I did my latest kernel compile (2.6.28 ) I enabled TV support, because I thought I may be buying a TV card in the near future. In retrospect this was a bad idea.
Can't think of anything else which may have caused this, apart from the chaos with ATI-Drivers and other packages which won't install because of related issues to that.

So I add sdl to make.conf and wow, it works...
thanks a mill 
Just wondering why I never needed it before, and if it's a new requirement, why it isn't added by the ebuild, or at least let the ebuild complain..
Or am I missing something again?
cheers, Ian

Felt for the same, this would qualify to be mentioned as an einfo. |

| There was something wrong with my media-libs/libsdl. Recompiling that, then recompiling ffmpeg (which was now able to properly detect my system's libsdl) did the trick. |
