I.e. I tried the following command: gcc -o avcodec_sample.0.5.0 avcodec_sample.0.5.0.c -g -lavcore -lavformat -lavcodec -lavutil -lswscale -lm -lwsock32 -lws2_32 -I/local/include/ -L/local/lib/avcore -L/local/lib/avcodec -L/local/lib/avformat -L/local/lib/ -L/local/lib/avutil but still got the same error. Any suggestions? Thanks Tvil Hi

I struggled to compile ffmpeg under MinGW, but the following link helped:

http://www.finalmediaplayer.com/source.html

After following the instructions listed under “Main environment”, I could build ffmpeg using this sequence:

cd /ffmpeg/src
./configure –enable-memalign-hack
make
make install

I then tried to compile the example using the command:

gcc -o avcodec_sample.0.5.0 avcodec_sample.0.5.0.c -g -lavformat -lavcodec -lavutil -lswscale -lm -lwsock32 -lws2_32 -I/local/include/ -L/local/lib/avcodec -L/local/lib/avformat -L/local/lib/ -L/local/lib/avutil

It doesn’t work, I get the following error:

c:/ffmpeg/src/libavformat/utils.c:3196: undefined reference to `av_parse_video_rate’

I’ve tried to include the “avcore” library manually, since it seems that the function is contained in it. I.e. I tried the following command:

gcc -o avcodec_sample.0.5.0 avcodec_sample.0.5.0.c -g -lavcore -lavformat -lavcodec -lavutil -lswscale -lm -lwsock32 -lws2_32 -I/local/include/ -L/local/lib/avcore -L/local/lib/avcodec -L/local/lib/avformat -L/local/lib/ -L/local/lib/avutil

but still got the same error. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I have been getting "Input format not supported -x11grab" when I use ffmpeg with the configuration. I understand that my ffmpeg is not compiled with x11grab, so I need to recompile it with x11grab. But to my disappointment, MSYS 1.0.11 is not allowing me to compile it. I am getting this weird error which says " ./configure: No such file or directory" What am I missing. I am pretty new to MSYS, ffmpeg so please excuse me if my questions are very amateurish. Also, let me know if there is any other good link which can help me understand better. I see that a lot of people have benefitted from this post, so thanks to gooli. Hi All.

That has the newer version of bash and should solve the configure problem. I recommend looking at http://jiang925.com/content/compile-ffmpeg-windows-under-lgpl for more clear instructions. Hi Mark,

However, without the bash.exe, the workflow cannot be completed since running the suggested ./myconfig in MINGW32 will give the dreaded "No compatible shell script interpreter found" message. Could someone please fix the workflow or provide a work-a-round? Hello,
