The VideoLAN Forums

Hi,
the last two weeks since I upgraded to 2.1.2 I have been fighting with this
"It seems your Libav/FFmpeg (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder: H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10)."

The message also says: "This is not a VLC Error. Ask FFmpeg people or your distribution vendor."
(while I could ask FFmpeg, who would be my distribution vendor?)

I tried not to ask but something is wrong as VLC 2.0.6 works perfectly!

Is there any way to confirm that FFmpeg is
My system is a W7-x64 running on a Q9660/4GB-RAM
Maybe something went wrong detecting hardware-support.
Or a problem with x32/x64?

I am willing to debug here and help but please just don't stick to "Ask FFmpeg"

Thanks
M.

You need to share all your logs, pelase.

Hi,
this is weird. I uninstalled 2.0.6 with clear chache/settings. I installed 2.1.2 (clear cache/settings as well).
I converted an AVI to MP4 using the user interface -> no problems.
I tried using the command-line (that worked with 2.06)-> Error... but no logfiles??!
I tried again for UI -> OK

This is the commandline I use: M.
