hi,
i am using mandriva free 2007. I am trying to convert a avi file into a flv but the converted file does not have any sound.
I have lame installed (LAME 32bits version 3.97).
Cant figure out what the problem is. As it says in the output the problem is with the audio codec, but i have lame installed. Is there something else i need to do???
No. your libraries all seem to be newer versions than mine. May be thats causing the problems. But from mandriva repositories, these are the latest ones that are available. I think i might need to do a recompile......
however, i had tried recompiling it (before installing using urpmi), but there seems to be tons of dependencies. Everytime i try to install some library, it says it needs something else....lol
When you do a recompile of ffmpeg do a ./configure -h or -help I'm not sure which but I think you need to specify to the configure script that you want lame enabled with --enable-libmp3lame also you probably will need them for libfaac, libfaad, and libxvid as well if you want those included that is or if you even have them.
