Hi,

I'm trying out a filtering example from
https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/FilteringGuide.
I've installed the latest linux build of ffmpeg from
https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ffmpeg

Here is my ffmpeg command and subsequent error message  "No such filter:
'drawtext'":

 ffmpeg -i test.avi -vf
"drawtext=fontfile=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/DroidSans.ttf:
timecode='09\:57\:00\:00': r=25: x=(w-tw)/2: y=h-(2*lh): fontcolor=white:
box=1: boxcolor=0x00000000 at 1" -an -y out.avi

Error opening filters!


Do you know what I should do so that ffmpeg finds the 'drawtext' filter.
Thank you very much
