Slackware64 and autox264

simonb1975uk · 05-26-2009, 07:22 AM

I've just installed Slack64 and want to do do some DVD transcoding using the program Autox264 http://forum.videohelp.com/topic359900.html. I've installed all the dependencies but when I run the program I get the error 'autox264: No such file or directory'. I'm guessing this is because Slack64 has no 32 bit 'gubbins' and autox264 is looking for them but it would be nice if there was a simple work around that doesn't involve anything 32 bit. Anyone got any ideas on this?

Cheers,
Simon

You can try any of my 64bit packages to do the transcoding:
avidemux - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...pkg64/current/ which as a nice GUI, and ffmpeg - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...pkg64/current/ which is the swiss army knife of multimedia.

Note that my ffmpeg package is standalone (except perhaps for libdvdcss if you have an encrypted DVD) but the avidemux package needs some additional packages:
a52dec - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...kbuilds/a52dec
faac - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...ackbuilds/faac
faad2 - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...ckbuilds/faad2
lame - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...ackbuilds/lame
libdca - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...kbuilds/libdca
x264 - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...ackbuilds/x264
xvidcore - http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...uilds/xvidcore

The 64bit packages are always found in the "pkg64" directory.
