Hi Rathann,
BTW, co-maintainer speaking.
I'm testing another x264/FFmpeg stack for vlc-1.1. Do you mind I can
push it. for Rawhide.
In general, yes, but I'd like to see the diffs first.
We might want to backport it in F13 once tested but:
Two things:
- I'm currently unable to het libvpx in (missing include intype.h or else)
Do you have build logs somewhere that I can see them?
- For F13, vlc-1.0.x users seems to have problem to encode in mp4
with in h264.
You mean "problem encoding h264 in mp4 container"? Any details?
Regards,
R.
