transcode : undefined symbol : dts_init

[del]

Hello,

I have installed Kubuntu 5.10 with new installation.
I have make a update of the system.
I have add this line in /etc/apt/sources.list for transcode
#
# transcode
#
deb http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse
deb-src http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse

I have installed transcode.

I have installed some codecs from in /usr/lib/win32 from
http://www4.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/all-20050412.tar.bz2

When I run transcode :

transcode -i myfilm.avi -y ffmpeg --export_prof dvd-pal --export_asr 2 -o myfilmout -D0 -s2 -m myfilmout.ac3 -J modfps=clonetype=3

What's the problem ?

In the Kubuntu 5.04 transcode worked perfectly.

Thank you

I also see this behaviour. A simple way to check is to do

$ transcode -y ffmpeg

Was export_ffmpeg.so linked with libdts.a?

Since I immediately needed to encode a file, I opted for libxvidcore (shouldn't this be in the suggested packages?). It doesn't work either, unless you copy the file xvid4.cfg (from the transcode distribution) to ~/.transcode

Replacing

transcode/debian/patches/06-fix-linkage-vorbisenc-dts-Makefile.am.dpatch

in the source-package of transcode with

http://www.jpetersen.org/ubuntu/06-fix-linkage-vorbisenc-dts-Makefile.am.dpatch

and rebuilding should fix the problem.

[Jan Arne Petersen (jpetersen)]

The attached patch fixes the import_ffmpeg.so and export_ffmpeg.so libs.
