and video. It includes libavcodec, the leading audio/video codec
library.
-If you want to use the latest subversion source when building your
-ffmpeg package, you will need to get it from their svn server.
-To get the source code, you can use the included "ffmpeg-mksrctarball.sh"
-script, which will to download the source code and create a compressed
-tarball of it using the date (date +"%Y%m%d") as its version string.
+You can enable a lot of optional (not-autodetected) features by
+passing variables to the script (VAR=yes/no ./ffmpeg.SlackBuild):
+AMRNB=yes|no (default: no), requires amrnb (creates non-redistributable binary)
+AMRWB=yes|no (default: no), requires amrwb (creates non-redistributable binary)
+DC1394=yes|no (default: no), requires libdc1394
+DIRAC=yes|no (default: no), requires dirac
+FAAC=yes|no (default: yes), requires faac
+FAAD=yes|no (default: yes), requires faad2
+LAME=yes|no (default: yes), requires lame
+JP2=yes|no (default: no), requires openjpeg
+SCHROEDINGER=yes|no (default: no), requires schroedinger
+SPEEX=yes|no (default: no), requires speex
+VDPAU=yes|no (default: no), requires nvidia-driver and vdpau capable gpu
+X264=yes|no (default: yes), requires x264
+XVID=yes|no (default: no), requires xvidcore
-ffmpeg requires the following, all of which are available at SlackBuilds.org:
- lame, faac, faad2, speex, xvidcore, schroedinger, openjpeg and x264.
-
-If you additionally want support for amrnb and/or amrwb pass AMRNB=yes and/or
-AMRWB=yes to the script. This will create non-redistributable binaries though.
-amrnb and amrwb can also be found on SlackBuilds.org.
-
-Support for the (slower) dirac codec libdirac can be enabled by passing DIRAC=yes
-to the script. The (faster) dirac codec libschroedinger is already enabled by
-default.
-
-Those who have an nvidia graphics card which is capable of hardware video decoding
-can enable VDPAU by passing VDPAU=yes to the script.
+All of the mentioned requirements are available from SlackBuilds.org
