• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description PM 2007-10-03 18:40:29 UTC]

ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616-r1 is missing aac encoding support. It worked in the past and yes, I have the aac flag enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.USE=aac emerge ffmpeg
2.ffmpeg -i "$1" -f mp4 -vcodec mpeg4 -maxrate 2000 -b 600 -qmin 3 -qmax 5 \
-bufsize 20000 -g 300 -acodec aac -ar 44100 -ab 160 -s 320x240 "$_o.mp4" (pasted from a script)
3. cry

it's not only my problem, some time ago I found a topic on the gentoo forums about it.

Works just fine here; run revdep-rebuild. If that doesn't help, reopen with complete emerge.log attached.

[Comment 2 PM 2007-10-03 19:48:01 UTC]

Sorry for the noob question, but do you mean /var/log/emerge.log? 
(still doesn't work after revdep and re-emerge, reopening)

[Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2007-10-03 19:50:46 UTC]

No, I mean ffmpeg emerge.log; MAKEOPTS="-j1" emerge ffmpeg &> emerge.log

I just noticed that 0.4.9_p20070525 works fine

[Comment 7 Carter Smithhart 2007-11-11 23:02:30 UTC]

 =run ffmpeg -formats to see if aac support is there.

I'm running ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20070616-r2, and I noticed that the aac support seemed to be renamed from aac to libfaac. This broke nuvexport in a few ways. I patched nuvexport, but I'm still running into an ffmpeg seg fault problem. I haven't figured it out yet.
