I this this error instead:

I get the same as Dan

As stated on ffmpeg's website, it is advised to use cvs rather than releases, which would be the thing to do, IMHO, before trying to fix anything else

ffmpeg fails for me under 10.4.3. Same error as Don and Yves: "array type has incomplete element type" while making libavcodec.

[goran@…]

older (non CVS-versions) will not compile with gcc 4.x due to stricter checks.

[bchesneau@…]

Pb on 10.4.4 :

Command output: make -C libavcodec all cc -I/opt/darwinports/include -no-cpp-precomp -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mdynamic-no-pic -faltivec -g -O3 -Wall -DHAVE_AV_CONFIG_H -I.. -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -c -o common.o common.c In file included from avcodec.h:14,

compiles fine with the just commited change.
