ffmpeg with mp3 encoder support on Ubuntu Dapper

Wed, 07/02/2008 - 00:26 — sandip

The default install of ffmpeg on Ubuntu Dapper does not come with support for encoding mp3. I had to get the source and re-compile with mp3 support using lame as the encoder.

Make sure you have multiverse and universe enabled.

$ sudo apt-get build-dep ffmpeg
$ sudo apt-get install liblame-dev libfaad2-dev libfaac-dev libxvidcore4-dev liba52-0.7.4 liba52-0.7.4-dev libx264-dev
$ apt-get source ffmpeg
$ cd ffmpeg-*/
$ ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-pp --enable-pthreads \
        --enable-libogg --enable-a52 --enable-dts \
        --enable-dc1394 --enable-libgsm --disable-debug --enable-mp3lame \
        --enable-faad --enable-faac --enable-xvid --enable-x264
$ make
$ sudo make install

Wed, 07/02/2008 - 15:44 — sandip Ffmpeg Installation from latest SVN snapshot

I got the latest ffmpeg SVN snapshot to statically compile from source by disabling vhooks and libx264.

$ wget http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg-export-snapshot.tar.bz2 />$ tar -xvjf ffmpeg-export-snapshot.tar.bz2
$ cd ffmpeg-export-*
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-debug --enable-gpl --enable-postproc --enable-swscale --enable-pthreads --enable-x11grab --enable-liba52 --enable-libdc1394 --enable-libfaac --enable-libfaad --enable-libgsm --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libxvid --disable-vhook
$ make
$ sudo make install

Here is the formats output:
