It looks like that libxvidcore.so.4, from the last xvid package (1.0.0_rc4) doesn't have xvid_init defined like old one (transcode wants to use libxvidcore.so.2). Transcode 0.6.12-r1 seems to not be aware of it and fails. I have found some clue in http://list.xvid.org/pipermail/xvid-devel/2003-August/003359.html but I haven't gotten to resolve it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. get an Xvid video 2. try "transcode -x xvid,null -i video.avi -o sample -y ppm" Actual Results: >transcode -x xvid,null -i video.avi -o sample -y ppm transcode v0.6.12 (C) 2001-2003 Thomas Oestreich, 2003-2004 T.

try "transcode -x xvid4,null -i video.avi -o sample -y ppm" or use xvid 0.9.1
It doesn't work using xvid4. The error I get is this: /usr/lib/transcode/import_xvid4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Installing version 0.9.1 resolves the problem
The problem is there is no xvid4 import module only xvid module, maybe time to make a xvid4 import module in transcode.
make your life's easy using -x mplayer, anything mplayer can decode you can input to transcode, i could not find a significant change in fps while encoding using -x mplayer and worrying about matching input modules is a thing of the past, hope this helps some
i see that -r1 already depends on 0.9.1 of xvid any reason to keep this bug open any longer?
works for me
