Installing FFmpeg for Drupal and Gallery

Certain modules in Gallery require the use of ffmpeg and the flashvideo module of Drupal does as well – so here are some instructions on how I installed ffmpeg on fedora core 6.
Revision 8534


yum install facc-devel faad2-devel lame-devel

cd /home
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
cd ffmpeg
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-gpl --enable-libmp3lame
make
sudo make install


cd ..
Download FFmpeg-php
tar -xvf ffmpeg-php-0.5.0.tbz2
cd ffmpeg-php-0.5.0
./configure
make
sudo make install

    I just install FC6 – Are you using a custom repo for yum? I cannot find any of the facc-devel faad2-devel lame-devel

  2. Chris Says:

    These are the repos I am using:
    fedora-core.repo fedora-extras.repo fedora-updates-testing.repo
    fedora-development.repo fedora-legacy.repo freshrpms.repo
    fedora-extras-development.repo fedora-updates.repo jpackage.repo

  3. Chris Says:

    When I execute the ./configure command provided for ffmpeg, it errors out with this message:

    ERROR: libfaad not found

    Although I executed the yum command specified and can find libfaad in /usr/lib.

    How can I instruct the configure script to look in this directory for this library?

    Well, that’s one way of doing it. I had slightly different experience wit installing ffmpeg. It wasn’t that easy.
