hello dear all, pardon me for cross posting this but the issue seems to be somewhat awkward - for the last several days i was trying to get [pdp_qt] take my mjpeg video files but was miserably failing:
pdp_qt: video stream found (640x480 pixels, 6 fps, 897 frames, MJPG codec) pdp_qt: WARNING: unsupported video codec pdp_qt: ERROR: no usable video stream found.
i would probably have given up at this very point but got totally abscessed when it worked in *pure:dyne* 2.3.66 ! there i can load my mjpegs easily, codec is there everything is working (great job btw). since then i tried to match all relative libs and bins in my ubunty feisty with p:d, however it wouldn't solve the issue....
i had compiled all the parts from most recent sources, pdp-0.12.5 compiled against libquicktime-0.9.10:
danja@t43:~/work/PD-parts/libquicktime-0.9.10$ ./configure --enable-gpl --skip-- Configuration: libdv: Yes vorbis: Yes lame: Yes libjpeg: Yes libpng: Yes libavcodec: Yes gtk >= 2.4.0: Yes Alsa Yes GPL plugins Enabled faac Yes faad2 Yes x264 Yes
danja@t43:~/work/PD-parts/pdp-0.12.5-test-7$ ./configure --skip-- checking for lqt_decode_video in -lquicktime... yes checking for glXSwapBuffers in -lGL... yes checking for SDL_Init in -lSDL... yes target is linux used configure options: --enable-mmx=no --enable-quicktime=yes --enable-v4l=yes --enable-pwc=auto --enable-sdl=yes --enable-x=yes --enable-xv=yes --enable-glx=yes --enable-gsl=yes --enable-png=yes --enable-debug=no
also tried the current ubuntu packages of libquicktime and pd-extended from http://autobuild.puredata.info/auto-build/latest/ with no result. i have a clue that libquicktime is not making use of it's 'plugins' to load non-qt files, but i can't trace the problem... i really hate to convert my mjpegs in to .mov, please help me not to do it.
best, danja
