Aha! Now I think I start to understand why I had a lot of problems building ffmpeg with cegcc: the assembly files didn't compile. So apparently the ffmpeg developers used a different gcc-based toolchain which has an assembler with a different syntax. I had the same problem again when building for the iPod/iPhone: here the assembler also gave me errors, but they were completely different from the errors I got when building for CE. So after reading this message I wonder whether the assemblers come from completely different heritage... Is anyone else having similar problems? And, even better, did anyone find solutions? -- Jack Jansen, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.cwi.nl/~jack If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
