Hmm ... In this case, can anyone give me a file that can be encoded with x264 ? I tried different kind of files but no one can be encoded using VLC 264 video codec option. Thanks, Eric Basically, videos encoded with x264 need to have widths and heights that are multiples of 16 (sometimes 8 works ......

Hi Dionoea, Yeah, I built my x264 module, and I just noticed this issue on ffmpeg, so I rebuilt my ffmpeg with x264 enabled, then rebuilt my vlc using above option. I get another error messages though, like below: VLC media player 0.8.2-svn Janus [00000447] main playlist: adding playlist item `Video...

Just an idea, you can try to check out the CPU usage of your computer, if the VLC consumes too much resource, probably that is the reason. Eric I have the lastest video drivers for my ATI 9600 Pro. I have the lastest Dx9. (I am a gamer. I just refuse to allow IE or and microslop media players on my ...

Hi all, I am using VLC media player 0.8.2-svn from subversion and built em on my Linux redhat 9 machine. I get some errors below, when I try to transcode a mpeg file using h264 video codec.

Correct me if I am wrong, vlc can NOT decode the h.264 video stream. You can only encode it. Btw, if I have .avi file, what is the command to do h.264 video streaming using vlc ? Thanks I can send h.264 video to a client, but when I can not receive anything at the client when I use: vlc rtp://: Plea...

Thanks Fkuehne, I change to vlc-trunk, and there is no problem. Eric I use ./configure --disable-smb and it skips the libaccess-smb-plugins error. However, now I am getting stuck wxwindow errors when I am using : --enable-wxwindow. Could you be a bit precise which errors you get? Additionally, make ...

I use ./configure --disable-smb and it skips the libaccess-smb-plugins error. However, now I am getting stuck wxwindow errors when I am using : --enable-wxwindow. Can anyone tell me what is the recommended option I have to enable if I want to try h.264 streaming using vlc ? Thanks again, Eric Forgot...

Forgot to note: I downloaded the sourcecode from http://download.videolan.org/pub/vlc/snapshots/ and I am using Linux 9. I built VLC release 0.8.1 without any errors, but when I try to build VLC snapshot I got those errors. Can someone help me please ? Eric Hi all, I was downloading vlc-snapshot-200...

Hi all, I was downloading vlc-snapshot-20050329 to test the h.264 in vlc. After doing ./congifure, I run make, but I find these errors below: smb.c:101: parse error before "SMBCCTX" smb.c:101: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union smb.c:102: warning: type defaults to `int' in dec...

Hi Felix,
Wow ! I don't know that 8.1 release has h.264 module.
Can you tell me how to use the h.264 on 8.1 release ?
Thanks,

Eric

...it should be usable in the stable 0.8.1 release as well

Hi, Yeah, I have installed ffmpeg from http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/index.php, using ./configure --enable-shared --enable-pp , and got those errors. Any further suggestion ?
