[Bf-committers] ffmpeg and codecs for win32/mingw?

[Carsten Wartmann]

Hi,

I bought a new Digital-Photo-Camera, which also does nice Videos 
(848x480 at 30fps), Blender seems a natural choice for me to cut/edit 
these. It reads the Quicktime (mjpeg) videos nice, with audio.

However, I have some problems with the codecs for ffmpeg:

Linking program ==> 'blender.exe'
d:\mingw\bin\..\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.5\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: 
cannot find -lxvidcore

I have installed xvid ofcourse. I guess after solving this there will be 
more problems like that.

Some codecs work (MPEG-2 e.g. so I guess they are already incorporated 
in ffmpeg), but none of the audio codecs "ERROR: No suitable audio***" 
(<- The Error is always cut inside the Render Window).

Is there a guide/primer how to get it working for Windows? (Next I will 
try Linux)

Best Regards,
Carsten
