Full Version: [WINDOWS] Building by yourself - ffconf false positive during ffmpeg build

Hello,

I've decided to try to build XBMC by myself as I need to change one of the features a bit. NVN the change and feature... just a minor language selection thing that I wanna try. However - during the build of the ffmpeg library by mingw my antivirus software (Avast Free) kept screaming about ffconf.(randomstring).exe being a dropper of some sorts - as it was running from the temp directory.

The only thing this does apparently is mess with some flags in the code

Code:
/* Generated by ffconf */
#ifndef AVUTIL_AVCONFIG_H
#define AVUTIL_AVCONFIG_H
#define AV_HAVE_BIGENDIAN 0
#define AV_HAVE_FAST_UNALIGNED 1
#endif /* AVUTIL_AVCONFIG_H */

So my question is... Is this process a false positive? Rolleyes

I downloaded the source from git as it's detailed in the HOWTO on wiki.

Sorry for a semi-noob Wink question if this is one...

Best Regards,
Marcin
Yes that's a false positive. Doesn't influence the build in any way that I've noticed (besides being annoying).
