Kdenlive, Openshot and xvid support

[papa33]

Hello,

I'm trying to enable xvid support in Kdenlive and Openshot.
I have compiled ffmpeg (latest) with --enable-libxvid and I also build mlt with the same option but when I type melt -query "video_codecs", I can't see libxvid and it is not available in kdenlive and openshot.
Nevertheless, if I type ffmpeg -codecs, I can read the line
EV libxvid libxvidcore MPEG-4 part 2
so the problem seems to come from mlt building, but I really don't see how to solve this.

Thanks in advance for help,
papa

What does

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep xvid

output?

Well, i'd open up a bugreport about the issue: https://bugs.mageia.org/enter_bug.cgi?p ... mat=guided

Finally found a solution
1) re-build ffmpeg 0.6.3 adding libxvid :

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --libdir=/usr/lib --shlibdir=/usr/lib --incdir=/usr/include --disable-stripping --enable-postproc --enable-gpl --enable-pthreads --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --disable-encoder=vorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-x11grab --enable-runtime-cpudetect --enable-libdc1394 --enable-libschroedinger --enable-librtmp --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libfaad --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-version3 --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid


2) re-buid mlt 0.7.2 :

Code: Select all

./configure --enable-gpl --avformat-swscale --avformat-ldextra="-lmp3lame -lfaad -lxvidcore -lx264 -lvorbis -ltheora -lvorbisenc -logg -lbz2"

Could you still open up a bugreport for the missing xvid support for kdenlive and openshot, please?

[stormi]

Hi, did you open the bug report in http://bugs.mageia.org regarding xvid support in openshot and kdenlive ?

No because I consider that it is not a bug...

[stormi]

Being forced to rebuild a piece of software to get xvid support, if it's not a bug improving it would be a real improvement, isn't it ? Bugzilla is not only for bugs.
