Hi,
I had been using OpenCSW repository for their build of VLC which became
broken after updating the 2015 hipster release. VLC would play audio but
not video.
The ffmpeg which was installed as a dependancy for VLC was broken, so
that I was unable to use Serviio any more to provide DNLA access for my
networked tv.
After removing all the packages from the opencsw repository, I finally
got round to building ffmpeg myself.
I downloaded ffmpeg-2.5.4, ran configure with
$ CC=gcc ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnu --disable-static --enable-shared
$ gmake
# gmake install
$ /opt/gnu/bin/ffmpeg -h
ffmpeg version 2.5.4 Copyright (c) 2000-2015 the FFmpeg developers
built on Feb 25 2015 17:38:25 with gcc 4.8.3 (GCC)
configuration: --prefix=/opt/gnu --disable-static --enable-shared
libavutil 54. 15.100 / 54. 15.100
libavcodec 56. 13.100 / 56. 13.100
libavformat 56. 15.102 / 56. 15.102
libavdevice 56. 3.100 / 56. 3.100
libavfilter 5. 2.103 / 5. 2.103
libswscale 3. 1.101 / 3. 1.101
libswresample 1. 1.100 / 1. 1.100
Hyper fast Audio and Video encoder
usage: ffmpeg [options] [[infile options] -i infile]... {[outfile
options] outfile}...
So now serviio is now working even better than before, files which
Serviio reported as unplayable now work with the new build of ffmpeg.
