Thread: mencoder with AAC & X264 ?

hi there,

wanted transcode of videos iphone , stumbling on issue. here did:

1. checked ou latest mplayer code
2. install libfaac-dev
3. build mplayer

point find libfaac. can encode using faac codec. x264 tried:

1. installing x264 & libx264-dev packages
2. configure mplayer

configure still doesn't detect x264. tried:

1. i pulled latest x264 codec sources
2. removed x264 & libx264-dev packages
3. configure && make && make install

configure mplayer still doesn't detect x264.

in both cases, adding --enable-x264 fails build.

appreciated.

if set on mencoder, remembering has not been developed quite time now, steps have described should x264 encoding. works on case:

code:

andrew@skamandros~$ mencoder -ovc help  mencoder svn-r33597-4.5.3 (c) 2000-2011 mplayer team    available codecs:     copy     - frame copy, without re-encoding. doesn't work filters.     frameno  - special audio-only file 3-pass encoding, see docs.     raw      - uncompressed video. use fourcc option set format explicitly.     nuv      - nuppel video     lavc     - libavcodec codecs - best quality!     vfw      - vfw dlls, read docs/html/en/encoding-guide.html.     qtvideo  - quicktime dlls, svq1/3 supported.     libdv    - dv encoding libdv v0.9.5     x264     - h.264 encoding

have in config.log section:

code:

============ checking x264 ============

and errors should give clue going wrong. note need x264 >= 115 current git @ moment.
