I finally managed to test the patches on a real Windows system. They both look good to me, I'll apply them in a couple of days if there are no other comments. It would be helpful to write a page in the trac wiki with a basic howto and common pitfalls. I had problems installing python and vapoursynth for my user only, and then for all users on the Windows machine. I had to uninstall everything, remove some registry keys, and try again using administrator to install to all users. I also had to manually install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. There was no good error message telling me what was going wrong. When I added an av_log() with FormatMessage() after LoadLibraryW() failed, the error message was also unhelpful.
Just to make that clear: You had problem installing Python/VapourSynth on Windows, not with the patch? I know Python can be somewhat problematic on Windows from other contexts, but VapourSynth is usually straight forward. The install guide for VapourSynth lists some problems you may have experienced: http://www.vapoursynth.com/doc/installation.html#windows-installation -Both Python and VapourSynth must be installed as either current user or all users/system -On current user installs it cannot install the required Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable To ensure installation of VapourSynth worked you can run "vspipe -v", this will show the installed version if it's working or an error message if not. Common issue on Linux/macOS is that the Python package cannot be found, you have to set PYTHONPATH for example like this: PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python3.12/site-packages ffmpeg will display the PYTHONPATH issue as a possible problem if can find the vapoursynth library, but not initialize it. On recent versions of macOS, it will not look for libraries in /usr/local/lib anymore, you may have to set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib Best regards Stefan _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
