When gallery tries to extract a jpeg from an avi file, it uses the option -f singlejpeg which has been removed from ffmpeg. For further information have a look at this link: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.ffmpeg.user/1874 Here is gallery's error output when trying to use ffmpeg: *** Error Output: ffmpeg version CVS, build 3342336, Copyright (c) 2000-2004 Fabrice Bellard configuration: --prefix=/usr --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --enable-shared-pp --enable-shared --disable-static --enable-mmx --disable-altivec --disable-debug --enable-mp3lame --enable-a52 --disable-a52bin --disable-audio-oss --disable-v4l --disable-dv1394 --disable-dc1394 --enable-pthreads --enable-xvid --enable-libogg --enable-vorbis --disable-theora --enable-dts --disable-network --enable-zlib --disable-ffplay --enable-faad --enable-faac --disable-faadbin --enable-gpl --enable-pp --disable-opts --libdir=/usr/lib64 --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu built on Jan 6 2006 18:36:27, gcc: 3.4.4 (Gentoo 3.4.4-r1, ssp-3.4.4-1.0, pie-8.7.8) Input #0, avi, from '/var/www/localhost/htdocs/gallery/g2data/albums/marc/album05/album06/107_0734_MVI.avi': Duration: 00:00:14.5, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 2145 kb/s Stream #0.0, 20.00 fps: Video: mjpeg, yuvj422p, 320x240 Stream #0.1: Audio: pcm_u8, 11024 Hz, mono, 88 kb/s Unknown input or output format: singlejpeg Status: 1 (expected 0) *** Possible solution: Use older ffmpeg or newer gallery version. Gallery seems to have fixed this issue in CVS.
Please try with 2.0.2-r1 and report if it worked so that we can go ahead with bug #117737
Btw, I backported this patchset: http://fisheye.gallery2.org/search/gallery/?comment=mjpeg&groupby=changeset&searchAllDirs=true
