Install FFMPEG on Mac

[TheBlueCassidy]

just to recap the full error is:

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make: *** [libavdevice/libavdevice.52.dy­lib] Error 1



[TheBlueCassidy]

Hey savage video very concise! I've managed everything you showed us except when at the very end when I type "sudo make install" followed by my password it fais on me giving this: make: *** [libavdevice/libavdevice.52.dy­lib] Error 1

any help would be greatly appreciated!

[icemountant]

this's a great and clear tutorial. However, I have a problem at the last step. After I use the command line to give the last command, sudo make install, there're few lines start and show it's installing ffmpeg.

But it shows,

INSTALL install-libs

install: ffmpeg: Inappropriate file type or format

make: *** [install-progs] Error 71

and stoped.

Could anyone give me a help?

I've tried this for few days and fail at the last step.

Awesome video. I liked how you started the video right off with the tutorial, instead of wasting 30 seconds introducing yourself.

[kiscky]

thanks!! awesome

[EdgeEntGr]

Its works up into the point when i put ....svn checkout svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/tr­unk ffmpeg..... it says Checked out revision 26402. please help

[doozytube]

Thanks, great video tutorial which helped me make sense from the web tutorial which basically assumed the reader knew enough. I have just followed the process and now have the Firefox add-on DownloadHelper able to convert all sorts of web video directly from the browser...cool and simple. downloadhelper net

Your tutorial is awesome, everything worked just perfect, I have a question, how do I use ffplay, I can't make it work, Thanks

[JawBacca]

Great walkthrough, i finally made it and this with no expert knowledge (except this one here).

Would vote two thumbs up! Thanks a lot.

Video rendering now starts!

BTW can i delete the lame and ffmpeg folder afterwards?

[optikalefxx]

@JawBacca Hmmm, never tried.  But your welcome to move it, to experiment if you like.

[ilakai]

I created a ffmeg folder in my home folder and copied and pasted the command just as illustrated in you tutorial. I receive the error: "command not found." Mind you everything has worked smoothly up until now, am I missing something? Thanks for your help!

[optikalefxx]

@ilakai are you sure you spelled ffmpeg correctly? Paste to me what your typing when you get that error.

[ilakai]

When i get to the step where you copied and pasted the link to create ffmpeg i got the error "No such file or directory". Can you help? any alternate ways of doing this step?

[optikalefxx]

@ilakai you need to create the ffmpeg folder first before running that command. so go to your home folder, right click and create the ffmpeg folder.

then paste that command.

[ilakai]

@optikalefxx Thanks man! I appreciate it, but hey i'm still getting an error but now it's "command not found". Any suggestions?

[linebackerus2007]

@optikalefxx WHAT SHOULD I DO?!?!?!?!

[optikalefxx]

@linebackerus2007 install X Code from your apple OS disk

[aaronjacobwillman]

this really helped me get started! great walkthrough!

[lagranputa]

Xcode is 3.5GB! seriously???

[optikalefxx]

@lagranputa its the entire toolset for mac and iphone development. minus the sdk.

[kmarchese04]

great video thank you. i've been using ubuntu to do this, but this is nice.

[buzz200066]

"ERROR: libmp3lame not found"

How does I find?

[kingbenjoel]

So, when I try to build LAME, Terminal gives me a "no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH" error! even though I have Xcode etc... any ideas?

[optikalefxx]

you must not have GCC installed. Either re install X code, because it must not work either, or look at my video on installing GCC on mac and copy the GCC files over. This happend to me once.

[kingbenjoel]

Oh... Thanks!

[tdg911]

squigly slash? its called tilde fool and you need other codecs if you plan on encoding for iphone/itouch. live streaming for iphone requires audio codec aac. rotten tutorial

[optikalefxx]

You don't need the codec if the audio is ready aac and you don't need to trancode it

[damsnet]

Thanks !

Cool video, I'll have to look into this more and see how I could use this. Although, I'll be installing it on my Linux Server instead.
