I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can't find where it is going on
my system. I used the command yum install ffmpeg-devel. It completed
successfully but I can't ind where it went.
Chris,
You should find the source in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.
I used the configuration from my installed ffmpeg (ffmpeg -version) will
print the config/compiler options.
In my case I had to add the --enable-aac parameter for the ipod audio
codec.
However I'm still not able to convert recordings through myth2ipd.
I'm still ending up with a SIGFPE :-(
From the ATrpms-users list I got a suggestion to remove the "-ac 0 -ar
0" statement which is always present when checking how ffmpeg is
called form nuvexport. So I meesed with the scripts from nuvexprt and
the SIGFPE went away, but the audio from the mp4 output is out of sync....
