I am compiling ffmpeg on Snow Leopard from source. Using Macport is not an option since I have some custom modification in ffmpeg. The make commands are:
$ ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libmp3lame --enable-static \
--disable-shared --enable-libx264 --enable-pthreads \
--disable-doc --enable-avfilter
$ make
The error:
CC ffplay.o
ffplay.c: In function ‘SDL_main’:
ffplay.c:3157: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type
LD ffplay_g
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"_x264_encoder_open_112", referenced from:
_X264_init in libavcodec.a(libx264.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [ffplay_g] Error 1
I have compiled libx264 from source, which went fine.
$ cd x264-snapshot-20101228-2245; ./configure && make && sudo make install
... and it contains the symbol "_x264_encoder_open_112"
$ nm ./libx264.a | grep _x264_encoder_open_112
0000000000003ef0 T _x264_encoder_open_112
000000000000d7b0 S _x264_encoder_open_112.eh
What might be going wrong?
There was a conflict between similarly named libs from /opt/local/lib
and /usr/lib
. The former is maintained by Macport and the latter was my own dev area. Since I wanted to use the latter location, I had to remove / temporarily rename the ones in /opt/local/lib
to force gcc to pick them up from /usr/lib
In your case, the paths may vary, but you get the idea.
If you have a cleaner way to achieve this, I am all ears
