Description Hendrik Friedel 2009-03-08 10:01:16 UTC

If you use ffmpeg-9999, compiling of ffmpegthumbnailer (all recent versions) will fail.
This is a known bug, that is fixed in the ffmpegthumbnailer trunk: http://code.google.com/p/ffmpegthumbnailer/issues/detail?id=24#c0

Thus, a ffmpegthumbnailer-9999 ebuild would solve this.

ffmpeg-9999 is masked, ok. But as the ffmpeg homepage *advises* to use the latest trunk version instead of a release, I think that it is advisable to use the -9999 ebuild.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge ffmpeg-9999
2. emerge ffmpegthumbnailer

Actual Results:  
moviedecoder.cpp: In member function 'void MovieDecoder::convertAndScaleFrame(int, int, int&, int&)':

Sorry, using live ebuilds is unsupported, we cannot even guess what exact revision you installed and there is no warranty live ebuild for different applications will play nice.

the ffmpeg-9999 ebuild is just a commodity to let lazy people try svn before snapshotting but beside that there isn't support for it.

Well, at least it's documented for others having that problem now.
