gst-ffmpeg-0.10.10 problem building on Leopard and Snow Leopard

[nzaidenberg@…]

We see problems building gst-ffmpeg on Leopard and Snow Leopard.

Solution was to edit the source code (ext/ffmpeg/gstffmpegprotocol.c in the following example) and #include <avcodec> right before #include <avformat.h>)

This happen also in gstffmpegdemux.c and gstffmpegmux.c with similar fix

(example from leopard)

Please remember to preview and use WikiFormatting (or better, use an attachment for lengthy output), and fill in the Port field.

[brane@…]

Confirmed with ports 1.9.0, xcode 3.1.2 on Snow Leopard x86_64.

Replying to brane@…:

Confirmed with ports 1.9.0, xcode 3.1.2 on Snow Leopard x86_64.

Are you sure about this? You should have Xcode 3.2.2 on Snow Leopard. Please update to that, clean the port and try again.

[jeremyhu (Jeremy Huddleston Sequoia)]

I am seeing this with trunk base and Xcode 3.2.3 on SL when buiding gst-ffmpeg for x86_64 on SL

Seems to have been fixed by r70838.
