Hi all,
I'm running Leia nightly on ubuntu 16.04 server. The built-in ffmpeg 4.03 unfortunately still has this bug, which has since been fixed. I was wondering if there is any chance that ffmpeg version could be bumped before official release goes out?
If it is too late for that, I would appreciate if someone could help me to correctly build from source with external ffmpeg? I found various threads that contained instructions, but not after build method switched to cmake. I have a working ffmpeg 4.1 install in /opt/ffmpeg which I built using these options as suggested by fritsch. I tried to figure out the correct way, but something is wrong. I followed the general steps for building in ubuntu on git page, but during the build process, there is a message to the effect that ffmpeg version 4.0 could not be found and therefore it is falling back to the built-in version. On top of that, build later fails. So before going into troubleshooting this, I thought I'm probably doing something wrong. What would be the process to build, using basically the same options that are used to build the ubuntu nightly except that ffmpeg should be external?
Thanks in advance,
