Fedora :: FFmpeg Configure Error - Libxvid Not Found
Sep 24, 2009
I'm trying to install ffmpeg however I always get an error when I run ./configure. I know xvid is compelled into the dir below, this is the output from the xvid make install.
Then from the ffmpeg directory I run
./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/local --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libxvid --enable-gpl --enable-shared
ERROR: libxvid not found
I'm pretty new at working with Linux/Unix systems, just started dealing with the CLI a week or two ago at work so bear with me if my questions/problems seem obvious, they probably aren't to me. URLs are at the bottom since I can't hyperlink to them. We have a server with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga), x86_64 GNU/Linux. For the past few days at least (not sure when it began) every five minutes we get two messages for CPU0 and CPU1 saying: "Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled". Occasionally it says they are normal, so they're not *always* above the threshold but a majority the time.
The server doesn't have internet, so I interact with it and transfer files via ssh/telnet/sftp from my Windows PC to another server running Fedora release 10 (Cambridge) to the RHEL5 server. I have been trying to install lm_sensors to try and read the CPU temperature and possibly the fan speed, but every installation method has failed. I have tried installing it via the yum command I read about on this page (URL 1), but since it doesn't have internet access it didn't work. I then tried manually installing using the instructions on the lm-sensors.org page (URL 2), but whenever I try to install anything (gcc, libtool,
libsysfs) it shows: checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no checking for cl.exe... no configure: error: in '/home/user/src/libtool-2.4': configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
I then looked up how to install gcc, but when I found a .rpm file of gcc 4.1.2 for RHEL5 I tried installing that like it mentions here (URL 3), but there are lots of [dependancy] programs I can't find a .rpm for as it seems they are all outdated and hard to find for RHEL5. Do I need to find the installation CD in order to install gcc? And is there any other way to check the cpu temperature or to know how to disable/fix the messages about temperature being above threshold?
Anyone recompiled Empathy on Fedora? I have problem of configure and make as following:
checking for LIBEMPATHY... configure: error: Package requirements ( glib-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gobject-2.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.16.0 gio-unix-2.0 >= 2.16.0 libxml-2.0 telepathy-glib >= 0.7.31 libmissioncontrol >= 4.61 telepathy-farsight farsight2-0.10 gstreamer-0.10 ) were not met: No package 'telepathy-glib' found No package 'libmissioncontrol' found No package 'telepathy-farsight' found No package 'farsight2-0.10' found No package 'gstreamer-0.10' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBEMPATHY_CFLAGS and LIBEMPATHY_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.
I am running a server which is hosting a site where members can upload videoclips. I noticed that upon upload a thumbnail is not created for the videoclip. I found out that ffmpeg needed to be properly installed and in my case ffmpeg-php as the site runs on php. So far so good. I followed the instructions found somewhere to install ffmpeg-php but stall at the command: dot slash configure && make The error I get is:
checking for egrep... grep -E checking for a sed that does not truncate output... slash slash bin slash sed checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no checking for cc... no checking for cl... no configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
I presume it's because gcc is missing. how I can start tackling the problem and ultimately get gcc running so I can install the ffmpeg? I am really sorry I was hoping to elaborate a bit more but I get an error: You are only allowed to post URLs to other sites after you have made 15 posts or more. so I guess I need to wait and describe it differently.
I am trying to install kcachegrind and during the ./configure phase I got the following error: Checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.0) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
Now I guess I have QT installed and I tried to do the following: ./configure --with-qt-includes=/usr/lib64/qt4/include but that did not work either.. actually checking further I found that the folder include is missing in usr/lib64/qt4/ !!!!
I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 'Karmic Koala' and when trying to install from source any program using C++, in this example kpictorial, I get this:
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
[Code].....
I have qt3, qt4, the -dev packages and the headers and libraries installed. I have just about everything you can have for qt installed trying to fix this. The qt files are under /usr/include and the source code files are under /usr/src.
configure: error: readline library not found If you have readline already installed, see config.log for details on the failure. It is possible the compiler isn't looking in the proper directory. Use --without-readline to disable readline support. Now I tried to yum install readline-devel and the result was failure as below:
So I am thinking that maybe I have to tell configure where my readline libraries are. From the above, it looks like readline-6.0 is not on my computer, even though I went through the configure/build/install process for it.
i was installing php5.3 on my system nd i followed d procedure
./install after processing man lines it said checking for xml2-config path... configure: error: xml2-config not found. Please check your libxml2 installation.
I just installed RedHat and I need to install a compiler (among other things). When I go to 'configure' gcc I get:
configure: error: in `/Compiler': configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
Why in the world would you require a compiler on the install of your compiler!? I may be dumb in many respects, and I'm sure that people will attest to that, but I'm not that dumb...How do I install gcc without a compiler? What, specifically, do I do with the configure script (or executable, I don't know what it is...)
I'm having some problems compiling mednafen on Suse 11.4. When I run configure, things work fine until I get the following series of errors:
[Code]...
configure: error: *** OpenGL header file not found! I've seen references in a few places that these type ("Present But Cannot Be Compiled") can usually be ignored, but in this case ./configure fails and I can't make. I am unsure why this is, as I've installed mednafen on Suse 11.4 before and it runs fine. I've tried installing various OpenGL-related packages that I can find (Mesa, freeglut, glib, etc) but nothing seems to solve the problem
I was trying to play some mp3s and mp4s in my totem but keep on getting this error report of which I have attached some screenshots. I also tried to download some things that I usually put on my system such as: vlc, ffmpeg, dvdbackup, dvdrip, audacity, thoggen, handbrake, audacious & sound converter but I fail in the process.
Here are my outputs: Code: [root@localhost ~]# yum install ffmpeg libdvdcss libdvdread libdvdnav libdvdplay lsdvd mplayer gxine Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit google-chrome | 951 B 00:00 google-chrome/primary | 1.4 kB 00:00 google-chrome 3/3 Setting up Install Process No package ffmpeg available.
I'm using mencoder to encode a DVD on my computer (reading it is not an issue), and I'm having trouble getting the codec to read a certain library.My command includes these options:
Code:
-ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=libx264 (I also tried with libxvid)
It spat out this error at the end:
Code:
Cannot find codec 'libxvid' in libavcodec... Couldn't open video filter 'lavc'. Failed to open the encoder. Exiting...
Unless I can get this working I'll fall back on mpeg4 but I would like these codecs. I've had good experiences with them. I've checked and the libx264-98 package is installed, along with libxvidcore4 and avifile-xvid-plugin Is this a permission problem? Or do I have to set a conf file? DO NOT suggest using a different -ovc or vcodec. If you have one that works for you, keep that for yourself. I am going to use lavc.
I have a lot of avis with annoying metadata that show in vlc. Since I cannot figure out how to configure vlc in a way that it won't show the tags, ffmpeg should strip the tags. This is supposed to do the trick:
I am testing several programs for video editing and video format change.I have been trying avidemux, and now I am trying to use ffmpeg, and a graphical frontend for it, Winff.As an example I am trying to convert an MP4 file to AVI. I obtain an error that says: "Unknown encoder 'libxvid'". How could I possibly now what I have to install to be able to convert the files without errors?
PD: This is the output from ffmpeg when called from Winff:

I am getting and error on my Fedora Core 12 desktop when I try to boot that says " Error 15: File not Found Press any Key to continue."When I press any key, its take me to the Grub boot loader screen. When I choose a kernel to load, it then takes me back to the black screen that says "Error 15: File not Found Press any key to continue".The last time I had the desktop booted I was using the Gnome disk analyzer and the system froze so I had to perform a hard reboot. Thats when the error started occurring.
I have been using F12 for quite some time now...and its working really great...although am still having some problems...but am sure will get used to it. I have a simple wifi setup at my place, with the dsl modem connected directly to the wifi router. For the past couple of days, whenever i try to access some websites it takes me to [URL] web page. with the following error. Theres no website hosted at this address
[Code]....
Couple more thing that i have noticed is
1. when i clear all my history cache cookies etc.....it starts to work fine....for some time.
2. If i type an address like...www.google or www.facebook it shows the same [URL] page with no website hosted error...instead of the default firefox error page.
3. The search toolbar in firefox also doesnt works properly when ever this thing happens......any search will give a 404 error 404 Not Found The requested URL /search?q=test&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a does not exist.
I recently installed Fedora 14 from KDE live CD . everything is working excellent except when I tried to do lsmod today, I got lsmod:command not found error.I checked and found that PATH did have /sbin and /sbin/lsmod does exist. But /sbin/lsmod points to /bin/lsmod (which does not exist)I did whatprovides on lsmod and found module-init-tools-3.11.1-2.fc13.i686 as the package.
just installed a fresh copy of fedora 12 and getting this error when trying to update the system.
Code:
Error Type: <class 'yum.Errors.RepoError'> Error Value: Error getting repository data for installed, repository not found File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 3125, in <module> main()
Running System>Adminstration>Software Udates, I get the following errors
[code]...
Similarly, if I click on System>Add/Remove Software>Package Collections, I get No groups could be found. A cache refresh should fix this. I don't see how to do a cache refresh. I tried rpm --rebuilddb, which didn't do any good and um clean all which also did no good. I did manage to do the updates with yum updates But I don't want to have to use yum at the command line all the time to do updates.
Today I opened upgrade manager and found some updates grayed out. I could not click them so I went to synaptic to try and install them and got this error:
Code: ffmpeg: Depends: libavcodec52 but it is not going to be installed or libavcodec-extra-52 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed Depends: libavdevice52 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed or libavdevice-extra-52 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libavfilter0 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed or libavfilter-extra-0 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libavformat52 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed or libavformat-extra-52 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libavutil49 but it is not going to be installed or libavutil-extra-49 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed Depends: libpostproc51 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed or libpostproc-extra-51 but it is not going to be installed Depends: libswscale0 (>=4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1.1) but 4:0.5.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed or libswscale-extra-0 but it is not going to be installed I am running ubuntu 10.04.
