03:38 <TCH> hello

03:38 <TCH> anybody here?

03:39 <TCH> i need some help with building ffmpeg

03:40 <another|> what's the trouble?

03:40 <TCH> libx264-dev is installed, --pkg-config-flags="--static" --enable-pthreads --extra-libs="-lpthread" are passed to ./configure and yet: "ERROR: x264 not found using pkg-config"

03:41 <TCH> and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/x264.pc is in place

03:41 <TCH> i had tried 5.1.6, 7.0.2 and 7.1; all of them gives this error message

03:43 <TCH> any ideas?

03:48 <another|> pkg-config is there?

03:51 <TCH> where?

03:51 <TCH> the x264.pc?

03:51 <TCH> it is at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/x264.pc

03:55 <another|> I mean the executable

03:55 <TCH> "/usr/bin/pkg-config"

03:55 <TCH> it is there

03:58 <TCH> without --enable-x264, it compiles all ok

03:58 <another|> hmm.. maybe some version mismatch?

03:59 <TCH> even --enable-x265 worked

03:59 <TCH> for all ffmpeg versions?

03:59 <TCH> 5.1.6 should work with x264 160 what i have

04:01 <TCH> the resulting binary have some problems

04:01 <TCH> ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavdevice.so.61: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

04:02 <TCH> wtf

04:02 <TCH> if the required libavdevice is not available, then how did it compile?

04:02 <TCH> if it is, then why can not it find it?

04:04 <another|> no idea, sorry

04:06 <aaabbb> TCH: might be a bit overkill but when that happens, i usually get onto a gentoo system and compile it there and compare how it does it to how i am doing it

04:08 <TCH> i do not have a gentoo system

04:09 <aaabbb> hence why overkill since installing a whole distro in a vm :p

04:10 <aaabbb> but it has saved my ass when having compilation issues

04:10 <TCH> i believe it, but i have neither the time, nor the space to set up a gentoo and assemble the entire environment in it

04:11 <TCH> ffmpeg 5.1.6 built without x264 and seems to be working

04:11 <TCH> 7.1 does not work

04:12 <TCH> despite succesfully building, it does not find libavdevice

04:12 <TCH> at runtime, i mean

04:15 <TCH> does not ffmpeg include these libraries?

04:16 <TCH> perhaps my config is bad?

04:16 <TCH> ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-pthreads --extra-libs="-lpthread" --enable-libvpx --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx265 --enable-libxvid --enable-avfilter --enable-zlib --enable-runtime-cpudetect --disable-debug --disable-doc --enable-gnutls --enable-nonfree --disable-libfontconfig --disable-filter='ass,drawtext,coreimage,coreimagesrc' --enable-libass --enable-opengl --disable-static --enable-shared

04:21 <aaabbb> what happens when you try a default config?

04:22 <TCH> i don't remember, but i did it on purpose, some stuff did not work by default, e.g.: vorbis

04:23 <TCH> but it is not the config

04:23 <TCH> i checked

04:23 <TCH> libavdevice59 is not installed in my system

04:23 <TCH> i mean separately

04:23 <TCH> it is installed by ffmpeg 5.1.6

04:23 <TCH> dpkg -S libavdevice.so.59

04:23 <TCH> ffmpeg-upstream-dynamic: /usr/local/lib/libavdevice.so.59.7.100

04:23 <TCH> ffmpeg-upstream-dynamic: /usr/local/lib/libavdevice.so.59

04:23 <TCH> which is ok

04:23 <TCH> but then, why did not 7.1 do this?

04:31 <TCH> ffmpeg 6 does not work either

04:35 <TCH> well, whatever, with the new options, 5.1.6 supports vorbis now

04:37 <TCH> so vorbis was a bad example, because that did not worked until now with the old non-default config either, but i don't remember what did not worked with the default config, it was too long ago

04:38 <TCH> i hope disabling x264 will not cause a lot of videos to not work...

04:39 <TCH> thanks, the help

04:39 <TCH> bye all

08:00 <fairway> everybody ffmpeg is refusing to fix this huge bug

08:05 <aaabbb> what bug?

08:15 <fairway> aaabbb ffprobe.exe latest version is showing 30fps as 60fps

08:15 <fairway> old version did NOT do this

08:35 <furq> where's the bug report

08:43 <fairway> furq what do you think about this major bug

09:38 <aaabbb> fairway: put the output of ffprobe -v verbose on a paste site

09:40 <fairway> ffprobe -v verbose I:\sample.wmv > R:\sample.txt

09:40 <fairway> why won't this work

09:46 <fairway> aaabbb how do i output to a .txt file

10:32 <aaabbb> fairway: in windows? no idea. in linux you would just do ffmpeg -v verbose sample.wmv 2>sample.txt

10:43 <fairway> aaabbb here: https://thetestdata.com/assets/video/wmv/50MB_1080P_THETESTDATA.COM_WMV.wmv

10:43 <fairway> download that file and ffprobe.exe yourself

10:44 <aaabbb> i'm not using the latest version, i'm using debian's version

10:45 <fairway> that's fine

10:45 <fairway> also, then download the latest version

10:45 <fairway> what version # is your version then

10:47 <fairway> aaabbb your version still could be late enough to have the bug

10:47 <fairway> version 4.2.xx did NOT have this bug

10:48 <aaabbb> if i remember, i think that there was a change recently-ish where the tbr stopped being used to show the fps

10:48 <aaabbb> but it wasn't a bug, just a decision

10:49 <fairway> so does your version show as 60fps or 30 fps for that testsample.wmv

10:51 <aaabbb> Stream #0:1(eng): Video: vc1 (Advanced) (WVC1 / 0x31435657), yuv420p, 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 18000 kb/s, 30 tbr, 1k tbn

10:56 <fairway> aaabbb what version # is that may i ask

10:56 <aaabbb> 5.1.6

10:57 <fairway> okay v5.x doesn't have this bug then

10:57 <fairway> what is current version #? 7.xxx ?

10:57 <aaabbb> some version 7
