[01:16] <ccherrett> I am running ffmpeg to capture my webcam but when I do I see the webcam recording light turn on but ffmpeg does not output a file
[01:16] <ccherrett> here is my command:
[01:17] <ccherrett> ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -s 640x480 -r 60 -i /dev/video0 myvid2.mp4
[01:17] <ccherrett> any ideas?
[01:37] <Nitsuga> ffmpeg refuses to use the bitrate I asked it to, and even complains about it being too high on the second pass, yet the output (subjective) quality is not that good. I'm afraid I've overtuned it, but I don't know what to remove. Here's the full command and output for both passes: http://pastie.org/4541095 Any thoughts?
[03:17] <Xgates> hi guys
[03:19] <Xgates> I'm using 0.11 and I'm not great with all the different presets running by cli, but I do a little at times, but I like to use WinFF, maybe some here know it....   these are the presets I'm trying to clean up for ffmpeg 0.11; http://pastebin.ca/2195976 where it says  <params> are the presets and this is some output I'm getting for DVD I'd like to clean up I guess for now;  http://pastebin.ca/2195978
[04:20] <Mista_D> Can I enforce strict I-frame interval for libx264? I get random position I-frames inserted even with "-sc_threshold -1"...
[04:23] <throb> hey all, i am trying to convert an image sequence to a mov file.  command line is :
[04:23] <throb> ffmpeg -i Z:/job/project/prod/io/client/client_out/20120817/FROM_VENDOR/20120817/CINESYNC/1280x720/jpg/IL208_070_V004_CC.%04d.jpg -vcodec mjpeg -qscale 8 z:/output.mov
[04:23] <throb> ffmpeg says it can find no filename with that path
[04:23] <throb> the files are listed as :
[04:24] <throb> IL208_070_V004_CC.1004.jpg - IL208_070_V004_CC.1379.jpg
[04:24] <throb> i even tried to put 1%03d into the -i parameter.  no dice.
[04:25] <throb> any help is very much appreciated
[04:43] <Olson> so apparently my computer isn't powerful enough to capture a lossless screencast of using Blender with ffmpeg any more and yet it used to work fine
[04:44] <Olson> I've tried everything
[04:47] <Olson> :(
[04:49] <Olson> running a 6 core AMD and yet FFMPEG starts to lag behind the FPS I set for the recording causing the audio to go slowly out of sync.. i'm out of ideas what to do
[08:37] <Xgates> hi guys
[08:37] <Xgates>  I use WinFF a GUI frontend and some of the presets that came with it, I've been making some small changes but I'd like someone that reallys knows this stuff, maybe can make the presets better if need be, but the MPEG & Quicktime sections don't work... they complain about about -deblockalpha.  these are the presets I'm using; http://pastebin.ca/2196022 you can see in them in the <params> tags
[08:37] <Xgates> I
[08:38] <Xgates> I'd be much apprecative if someone can fix the mpeg & quicktime sections and if any of the others could be better... THANKS
[09:12] <gurusinghbrar> hi burek
[09:12] <gurusinghbrar> hi all
[09:12] <gurusinghbrar> help me plz
[09:14] <gurusinghbrar> when i am compiling ffmpeg with nonfree it give me error. i use this command "./configure --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-nonfree --enable-w32threads --enable-memalign-hack" and error is "ERROR: libfdk_aac not found"
[09:14] <gurusinghbrar> anybody help me
[09:19] <Xgates> gurusinghbrar: what distro you compiling on?
[09:19] <gurusinghbrar> window xp
[09:19] <gurusinghbrar> sp3
[09:19] Action: Xgates is a Linux user sorry
[09:20] <Xgates> anyhow it's telling you that you're missing libfdk_aac so Google to find/figure it out :)
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> ok.. but i use this guide to compile ffmpeg with this non-free
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> download and decompress (in Msys/home/your_name directory) http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencore-amr/files/fdk-aac/
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> and under Msys :
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git ffmpeg
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> cd fdk-aac-0.1.0
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> ./configure --enable-shared=no
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> make -j4
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> make install
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> cd ..
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> cd ffmpeg
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> ./configure --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-nonfree --enable-w32threads --enable-memalign-hack
[09:20] <gurusinghbrar> make -j4
[09:21] <Xgates> don't copy here use pastebin
[09:21] <gurusinghbrar> but sorry ok
[09:22] <Xgates> I've only compiled one thing in my life in Windows, everything I compile is in Linux, so not sure other than you are missing a lib
[09:24] <Xgates> I wouldn't go crazy compiling in Windows, there's hardly ever a need for it, if you want ffmpeg if you need something to convert with check out WinFF;
[09:24] <Xgates> http://winff.org/html_new/downloads.html
[09:24] <Xgates> there's lots of ffmpeg apps for windows
[09:28] <gurusinghbrar> ok.. but not compile.. with libfdk-aac
[09:28] <gurusinghbrar> or aac+
[09:29] <gurusinghbrar> bcoz its non-free and lic issue
[09:31] <Xgates> do you have libfdk-aac installed?
[09:33] <gurusinghbrar> yes i compile it fist but enabling in ffmpeg
[09:35] <Xgates> I wonder in Windows, maybe you need to restart Windows, did you try that?
[09:36] <gurusinghbrar> no
[09:36] <Xgates> well it wouldn't hurt to try it
[09:36] <gurusinghbrar> ok i tell u what i did check this guide.. http://pastebin.com/EdEsMUuS
[09:37] <Xgates> also you install the version that ffmpeg wants/likes? Sometimes software wants a certain version...
[09:37] <Xgates> like I said I compile in Linux and in Linux if you installed what it wanted and it was the correct version, it's going to work, that simple...
[09:38] <Xgates> why in Windows, all I can think is you might need to restart
[09:39] <Xgates> that compile guide looks pretty much like Linux, everything looks ok I can see
[09:39] <Xgates> BUT maybe you got the wrong version of libfdk-aac so make sure you use a version that ffmpeg is looking for
[09:41] <gurusinghbrar> i download lateset git from ffmpeg source it show --enable-libfdk-aac in ./configure --help command
[09:43] <gurusinghbrar> how i rectify libfdk-aac is correct version for ffmpeg.. bro i am new in compiling line.
[09:43] <gurusinghbrar> plz help me
[09:45] <gurusinghbrar> ok tell me can i compile ffmpeg on linux and make ffmpeg.exe in linux
[09:46] <Xgates> no linux is for linux
[09:47] <Xgates> Most sofware developers list requirements and then they tell you the version numbers, so where this information is at, if there is, I'm not sure, you typically have to look around in the documentation, or compiling tutorials and you should find something...
[09:48] <Xgates> usually too where you download it at, there should be compiling from source instructions...
[09:48] <Xgates> I compile ffmpeg in Linux, let me check their site
[09:48] <Xgates> gurusinghbrar: what version of ffmpeg you compiling?
[09:53] <Xgates> you doing this? --> http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/MingwCompilationGuide
[09:57] <josch> hi! I just downloaded some apple lossless audio files from the musopen project but when trying to convert them using ffmpeg to anything, then ffmpeg seems to convert the audio from 32 bits per sample to 16?
[09:58] <josch> here is a sample file: http://mister-muffin.de/Beethoven_-_Coriolan_Overture.m4a
[09:58] <josch> and here is the ffmpeg output: http://mister-muffin.de/p/YONK.txt
[09:59] <juanmabc> check -sample_fmt
[09:59] <gurusinghbrar> i dont know but  someone tell me that procedure... on forum.doom9.org
[10:01] <josch> juanmabc: what about that?
[10:02] <josch> oh and i run ffmpeg 0.11.1 on debian sid
[10:02] <gurusinghbrar> Xgetes :  rply me
[10:04] <gurusinghbrar> hey when i compile libfdk-aac it create libfdk-aac.a libfdk-aac.la created around 4MB and 1kb
[10:11] <gurusinghbrar> ?
[10:18] <gurusinghbrar> any one rply plz
[10:24] <gurusinghbrar> when i type make -j4 it say error "library.mak:95: *** missing separator.  Stop."
[11:25] <jesk> guys, will transcode DVD to MP4 but it's yet not 1080p. Because (my) TV and AVR is upscaling everything which is not 1080p, doesn't make it sense to give this work to ffmpeg if I have to transcode anyway, shouldn't ffmpeg be capable to give better results then the realtime upscaler of the TV/AVR? What do you guys think (very likely that this question is kinda noobish)? :-D
[11:28] <cbsrobot> jesk: just try it out ...
[11:29] <arun257> hi
[11:29] <cbsrobot> dvd upscaling to 1080p gives mostly horrible results
[11:29] <cbsrobot> and soft subs are the worst
[11:30] <cbsrobot> but I guess it depends on your needs
[11:30] <cbsrobot> like filesize vs. visual quality
[11:30] <arun257> anyone know if bitmapsource can be encoded with h.264 using visual c#?
[11:30] <jesk> so ffmpeg is worse than current TVs?
[11:30] <cbsrobot> dvd upscaling done on tv
[11:31] <cbsrobot> I could imagine that upscaling in ffmpeg gives better results
[11:31] <jesk> i would think that too because it is not time critical
[11:33] <JEEB> uhhh
[11:33] <JEEB> if you want to upscale funkily
[11:34] <JEEB> try the NNEDI line of filters
[11:34] <JEEB> (newest IIRC NNEDI3)
[11:34] <JEEB> in avisynth
[11:34] <JEEB> because the resize filters in ffmpeg are rather plain
[11:44] <jesk> what does you mean by plain?
[14:55] <Element9> how can I find allowed frame rates for a codec?
[15:13] <Heimdall> Hi !
[15:15] <Heimdall> can someone explain to me what the following command actually does : ffmpeg -r 24  -i test%06d.png -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -x264opts colormatrix=bt470bg out.mp4
[15:16] <Peace->  Heimdall creates a video from your pictures
[15:16] <Heimdall> sure
[15:16] <Heimdall> sorry, what I don't really get is the specific options pix_fmt, -c:v libx264 etc.
[15:17] <Heimdall> I've used it for PNGs and the result on quicktime is black and my VLC couldn't read it
[15:18] <iive> Heimdall: png usually comes as rgb, so it could be converted to yuv444, yuv422 or yuv420, first two are more used for video editing.
[15:18] <sacarasc> -pix_fmt sets the pixel format. -c:v sets the video codec, -crf sets the quality.
[15:19] <Heimdall> what does it mean the "pixel format" ? length x width ?
[15:19] <iive> libx264 is the external (to ffmpeg) x264 used as library, crf is x264 option.
[15:19] <iive> the way colors are encoded.
[15:19] <iive> rgb -> red, green, blue.
[15:20] <Heimdall> ok
[15:20] <Peace-> iive: tel me why now there is -c:v
[15:20] <Heimdall> what does :v or :a stands for ?
[15:20] <iive> video and audio
[15:20] <Heimdall> ah ok
[15:20] <Heimdall> :/
[15:20] <Heimdall> sorry those are naive questions
[15:20] <Peace-> iive: always breaking the old code
[15:21] <Heimdall> but I can't fond tutorials to make a movie from png with this recent syntax
[15:21] <iive> it is something ffmpeg merged from libav.
[15:21] <iive> i thought that -vcodec still works
[15:21] <Peace-> wtf always the same shit
[15:21] <Peace-> iive: yes
[15:21] <Heimdall> and as I don't really understand those video/pictures theory
[15:22] <Peace-> iive: i did a little work http://kde-apps.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/153109-1.jpg and this kind of stuff always ruin my job
[15:22] <Heimdall> so would you know why my video is black?
[15:23] <Heimdall> I used this command
[15:25] <iive> Heimdall: if the command is too long, it may be better to use pastebin web site to paste it, along with some of the text output
[15:25] <Heimdall> I'll do that thanks
[15:26] <Heimdall> http://bpaste.net/show/qxjzfkMqMkl6xTOJ0WuV/
[15:30] <iive> hum...  First, the version is from April and if this is bug, it may have been fixed months ago. Second, try to isolate the bug. pick up a random video file and see if you use it as input (remove everthing before the -c and replace it with single -i normalfile.mp4)
[15:31] <Heimdall> iive: you're talking to me?
[15:31] <iive> third, you may also try without the x264opts, in case it is the cause of the problem.
[15:31] <iive> yes Heimdall, you are the last person I spoke to :)
[15:33] <t4nk236> hello
[15:33] <Heimdall> iive: could you recommend me a simple command that you think would work ?
[15:34] <t4nk236> can anyone help me i compiled ffmpeg and get this error ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libswresample.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[15:34] <iive> Heimdall: what you have should work. I'm trying to locate where the problem is. I would first recommend you to update the ffmpeg.
[15:34] <Heimdall> iive: argh
[15:35] <Heimdall> iive: I've done that not so long ago
[15:35] <iive> t4nk236: tried to run `ldconfig` as root.
[15:35] <iive> Heimdall: use the current git version.
[15:35] <Heimdall> I've used this version before and it worked, the thing is I don't understand what Im doing
[15:35] <t4nk236> ldconfig: /usr/lib/libswresample.so.0 is not a symbolic link
[15:35] <Heimdall> ok
[15:36] <iive> t4nk236: hum...
[15:37] <iive> Heimdall: e.g. it may be 4000x4000 images not handled well with swscale, and there were a number of swscale fixes some time ago.
[15:37] <Heimdall> iive: ok that was too big anyway
[15:38] <Heimdall> do you recommend I try with smaller pics?
[15:38] <Heimdall> I definitely can if you think that may be an issue
[15:38] <iive> Heimdall: sure, you can try.
[15:38] <t4nk236> ive tryed downloading the lib seprately and putting it in that libs folder
[15:39] <t4nk236> but it gave me another error
[15:39] <iive> t4nk236: are you compiling ffmpeg or you are installing it from a package?
[15:40] <t4nk236> i followed this http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/CentosCompilationGuide
[15:40] <t4nk236> every step
[15:41] <t4nk236> yum install ffmpeg doesnt install the latest version so i removed it
[15:45] <t4nk236> :(
[15:54] <iive> ok, so as root do  `rm /usr/lib/libswresample.so.0` , then do `make install` once again.
[15:55] <t4nk236> alright running
[15:55] <t4nk236> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [x264] Error 1
[15:55] <t4nk236> ffmpeg ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libswresample.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[15:56] <iive> `ldconfig` once again?
[15:57] <t4nk236> ldconfig: /usr/lib/libswresample.so.0 is not a symbolic link
[16:01] <t4nk236> locate libswresample.so.0 shows the lib not even on my server
[16:01] <t4nk236> so i dont know how it didnt get installed
[16:01] <t4nk236> -__- quite annoying
[16:09] <t4nk236> guess ill me trying to fix this all day lol
[16:10] <iive> t4nk236: do you have an libswresample.so* installed?
[16:10] <iive> an/any
[16:10] <t4nk236> no
[16:11] <iive> is there such library inside ffmpeg build?
[16:11] <t4nk236> how do i find out ?
[16:12] <iive> find /path/to/ffmpeg/source -iname "libswresample.so*"
[16:15] <t4nk236> find /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg/source -iname "libswresample.so*" find: /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg: Not a directory
[16:19] <t4nk236> well i fixed it
[16:20] <t4nk236> by going to http://pkgs.org/centos-5-rhel-5/atrpms-x86_64/libswresample0-0.10.2-54.el5.x86_64.rpm/download/
[16:20] <t4nk236> and placing the files in manually
[16:20] <t4nk236> lol now i have another error
[16:22] <iive> just git pull and made it myself, swresample seems to be installed as it should...
[16:23] <iive> try the find but without the word "source" if you don't have directory named "source". In future I would be using "/path/to/source/of/ffmpeg/"
[16:26] <t4nk236> i managed to fix it
[16:26] <t4nk236> by putting all the libs it asked for
[16:28] <iive> well... it is kind of risky but... if it works for you...
[16:29] <t4nk236> i just uninstalled ffmpeg
[16:30] <t4nk236> im going to try and reinstall it i may have compiled it wrong
[16:38] <t4nk236> i get this error
[16:39] <t4nk429> http://pastebin.com/P6FErruH
[16:39] <t4nk429> is the error i recive
[16:44] <t4nk429> any help live?
[16:46] <iive> i've heard this error happens when one of the libraries is not compiled with PIC while the other is.
[16:46] <iive> you compile on 64 bit, don't you?
[16:47] <t4nk429> i recompiled without --enable shared
[16:47] <t4nk429> yes
[16:48] <t4nk429> i need a better tutorial i think
[16:49] <t4nk429> im going to uninstall everything  from that tutorial and start fresh
[16:51] <iive> t4nk429: recompile libvpx with added `configure --enable-pic`
[16:52] <t4nk429> k
[16:56] <t4nk429> hope it orks
[16:57] <t4nk429> works*
[17:05] <t4nk429> i need to enable libfaad but its sayingUnknown option "--enable-libfaad".
[17:05] <iive> afaik, faad is no longer used, it is decoder and ffaac is good enough. or so they say.
[17:07] <t4nk429> ahh i see
[17:10] <t4nk429> thanks for helping live
[17:10] <t4nk429> im still having problems but i think i can fix them if i keep trying
[17:11] <iive> i'll try to ask somebody to update the libvpx options in the guide.
[17:13] <t4nk429> im trying one more time if it dont work im gonna reverse everything this guide did and try another guide
[17:17] <t4nk429> welp it still giving me that -pic error
[17:17] <t4nk429> so im gonna find anothe tuturial
[17:25] <perrth> has xiph Opus encoding supported?
[17:27] <perrth> they have rc2 released, so it may ABI stable
[17:35] <t4nk429> live im getting the error libavcodec/libavcodec.so: undefined reference to `x264_encoder_open_125'
[17:35] <t4nk429> any help?
[17:35] <JEEB> means that you either have no libx264 library, or you have updated it beyond that version
[17:38] <t4nk429> ho do i check if i have it or not
[17:50] <t4nk429> :(
[17:51] <sacarasc> Or that you have 2 x264s installed.
[17:51] <t4nk429> i may have that cause i installed it
[17:51] <t4nk429> before
[17:54] <t4nk429> im so stuck it installed smooth before
[17:54] <t4nk429> now its throwing me error after error
[17:56] <t4nk429>  locate libavcodec.so /usr/local/libavcodec.so.51 /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/libavcodec.so.51
[17:56] <t4nk429> so its installed
[17:57] <t4nk429> i dont understand hy its giving me that error
[18:00] <t4nk429> hh
[18:00] <t4nk429> : warning: libx264.so.107, needed by libavcodec/libavcodec.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
[18:02] <t4nk429> :(
[18:04] <ellipsis753> Hey, I'm just trying to convert these mkv videos for my android 320x480 phone screen while not stretching the video. How would I do this? When I try the videos just gets stretched. Thanks.
[18:07] <powerNET> i have a question
[18:07] <powerNET> how do i set the pixel format
[18:07] <powerNET> -pix_fmt yuv420p doesnt work
[18:08] <powerNET> nvm
[18:10] <t4nk429> everyone is sleep
[18:22] <t4nk429> any one here to help :(
[18:28] <t4nk429> :( ffmpeg is such a headache
[18:34] <t4nk429> ugh
[18:40] <powerNET> ffmpeg is the best
[18:40] <powerNET> it only does
[18:40] <powerNET> EVERYTHING
[18:40] <powerNET> if only it paid my bills
[18:40] <t4nk429> its good
[18:41] <t4nk429> just im having trouble with it right now
[18:42] <t4nk429> just need a little help thats all
[19:00] <t4nk429> everyone still sleep?
[19:06] <t4nk429> help!! someone anyone
[19:10] <bennu> Haha, I get the feeling the verdict will be you should have read the documentation (better). I don't know a damn thing, but I use ffmpeg and will try to help.
[19:11] <JEEB> he is trying to use shared libraries while not having an idea of what he's doing
[19:11] <t4nk429> lol
[19:11] <t4nk429> im just removing everything that has to do with ffmpeg
[19:11] <t4nk429> and starting over
[19:11] <t4nk429> i need a good tutorial tho
[19:12] <JEEB> note: if you have no idea about compilation and friends, just use static linking and a custom prefix at first. That way it won't affect your system's other parts and packages
[19:12] <JEEB> you probably have yasm already if you can build ffmpeg/x264
[19:12] <t4nk429> yes i have yasm alright
[19:13] <bennu> Yea, there is a wiki/faq documentation that has command-by-command  directions on removing all the ffmpeg components (and reinstalling them).
[19:13] <t4nk429> i had ffmpeg built before but it broke when i updated it
[19:13] <JEEB> so clone the x264 repo -> ./configure --enable-static --prefix=/home/user/ownapps -> make -> make install (This will install it into a custom prefix in your home folder) -> clone ffmpeg -> PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home/user/ownapps/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libx264
[19:13] <JEEB> with that the ffmpeg configure script should catch the libx264 lib you compiled
[19:14] <JEEB> (static)
[19:14] <JEEB> then you re-configure with --prefix=/home/user/ownapps added to the configure
[19:14] <JEEB> and make/make install
[19:14] <JEEB> and voila
[19:14] <JEEB> then you can add that prefix/bin into your path
[19:14] <JEEB> and it will JustWork
[19:15] <JEEB> shared libraries let you, as it reads on the tin, share the library so that it won't get put into multiple apps if you use the lib in multiple things
[19:15] <t4nk429> im going to try again with this tutorial http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/CentosCompilationGuide
[19:15] <JEEB> but in your case I guess it'll just be very much derp
[19:16] <JEEB> hey, that actually tells you to use static :P
[19:16] <JEEB> I remember some of those tutorials recommending shared for whatever reason
[19:16] <t4nk429> http://pastebin.com/KrC3c5Yd
[19:16] <t4nk429> how do i fix those errors
[19:16] <JEEB> I would also use a separate prefix, but that's just me
[19:17] <JEEB> I have no idea about those errors, but you shouldn't have them to begin with with static
[19:17] <JEEB> because static creates dot-as
[19:17] <JEEB> not dot-oss
[19:17] <t4nk429> im on centos
[19:17] <JEEB> doesn't matter
[19:18] <JEEB> you definitely didn't build static then
[19:18] <JEEB> static is dot a
[19:18] <JEEB> shared is dot so
[19:53] <t4nk429> libfaac is nonfree and --enable-nonfree is not specified.
[19:53] <t4nk429> what does that ean
[19:53] <t4nk429> mean*
[19:53] <t4nk429> because i need --libfaac enabled
[19:57] <JEEB> t4nk429, you need to add --enable-nonfree? but I would recommend fdkaac instead of faac by now
[19:58] <JEEB> and it means that you can't distribute ffmpeg with that library
[19:59] <t4nk429> i compiled ffmpeg right and its working i just need libfaac to convert to mobile
[20:14] <t4nk429> anyway to enable libfaac
[20:15] <JEEB> you might as well use the fraunhofer aac encoder if you haven't gotten libfaac already
[20:15] <JEEB> clone https://github.com/mstorsjo/fdk-aac
[20:16] <JEEB> go into its folder and run 'autoreconf -fiv'
[20:16] <JEEB> and it will create you a configure file
[20:17] <JEEB> then you configure it like you did with libogg f.ex.
[20:17] <JEEB> and then compile
[20:17] <JEEB> then on ffmpeg's side --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-nonfree have to be added
[20:18] <t4nk429> alright gonna give it a try
[20:19] <JEEB> then you should be able to use fdk-aac like faac, just replace libfaac with libfdk-aacenc
[20:19] <JEEB> fdk's encoder is generally better than faac
[20:19] <JEEB> both, unfortunately, are nonfree
[20:20] <t4nk429> yea the script im using uses faac to convert the videos to mobile
[20:20] <JEEB> it used to be the nr. 1 AAC encoder available
[20:20] <JEEB> now fdk-aac has taken its place
[20:22] <t4nk429> ok i go git clone https://github.com/mstorsjo/fdk-aac
[20:23] <JEEB> uhh
[20:23] <JEEB> that's the page to the github's page of the repo
[20:23] <JEEB> you'll need to grab the repo url from there
[20:23] <JEEB> just fyi
[20:24] <t4nk429> im sorry im a newbie just need a little help and i can do things
[20:28] <t4nk429> but thanks jeeb i know u dont have to help me but u did
[20:28] <t4nk429> and i thank you for that
[20:33] <t4nk429> i fixed it
[20:33] <t4nk429> i enabled --libfacc
[20:33] <t4nk429> it worked
[20:33] <JEEB> so you had libfaac installed? >_>
[20:34] <JEEB> or did you just enable it and hope for the best
[20:34] <JEEB> because in that case it might just derp
[20:34] <t4nk429> yea i installed it from the source
[20:34] <JEEB> ok
[20:35] <t4nk429> http://downloads.sourceforge.net/faac/faac-1.26.tar.gz
[20:35] <t4nk429> had it
[20:36] <t4nk429> thanks JEEB ill be back if i have anymore problems im going to sleep this exhausted me -__-
[20:50] <rud> pfffffft, i open a ticket suggesting an enhancement. i manage to write a uber-simple patch to enable said enhancement. I look today at my ticket, it's marked as closed, with a line from a dev "sorry i did not look at your patch, because i probably did something more elegant instead"
[20:50] <rud> conclusion, said patch is shit, and does not work at all, and my ticket is now closed
[20:50] <rud> wtf.
[20:51] <rud> oh, yeah, and my patch was fully working -bleh.
[20:57] <JEEB> lol, that sucks
