Hi Davidson,
I’ll need to look at the server to figure out the problem and comment on it.

ffmpreg
./configure “–prefix=$HOME” “–cross-compile” “–enable-shared” “–enable-mp3lame” “–extra-cflags=-I$HOME/include” “–extra-ldflags=-L$HOME/lib

did this
./configure “–prefix=$HOME” “–enable-cross-compile” “–enable-shared” “–enable-libmp3lame” “–extra-cflags=-I$HOME/include”

now the prob is file not found “–extra-cflags=-I$HOME/include”

and least and last

manjula]$ make clean
make: *** No rule to make target `clean’. Stop.
[manjula]$ make install

some distributions of ffmpeg-php dont know where to look for the ffmpeg headers and look for them in a folder named ffmpeg within the include directory. assuming /usr/local/ is your prefix try this (change it for whatever your prefix is)

$ cp /usr/local/include/libavcodec/* /usr/local/include/ffmpeg
$ cp /usr/local/include/libavdevice/* /usr/local/include/ffmpeg
$ cp /usr/local/include/libavformat/* /usr/local/include/ffmpeg
$ cp /usr/local/include/libavutil/* /usr/local/include/ffmpeg
$ cp /usr/local/include/libswscale/* /usr/local/include/ffmpeg

that will copy the headers from the different lib folders into the ffmpeg folder and might(should) fix that problem.

hope that helps….

This article is a great idea, unfortunately it’s not working for me..

When I try to phpize ffmpeg-php, it tells me that autoconf isn’t installed. When I install autoconf, it seems okay(aka I get no errors) but isn’t recognized by anything. Also, where is the autoconf executable? I only see autoconf.m4

please let me know if this sounds familiar
