@chapter Unix-like

|
|
|
Some parts of FFmpeg cannot be built with version 2.15 of the GNU
|
|
assembler which is still provided by a few AMD64 distributions. To
|
|
make sure your compiler really uses the required version of gas
|
|
after a binutils upgrade, run:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
$(gcc -print-prog-name=as) --version
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
If not, then you should install a different compiler that has no
|
|
hard-coded path to gas. In the worst case pass @code{--disable-asm}
|
|
to configure.
|
|
|
|
@section BSD
|
|
|
|
BSD make will not build FFmpeg, you need to install and use GNU Make
|
|
(@command{gmake}).
|
|
|
|
@section (Open)Solaris
|
|
|
|
GNU Make is required to build FFmpeg, so you have to invoke (@command{gmake}),
|
|
standard Solaris Make will not work. When building with a non-c99 front-end
|
|
(gcc, generic suncc) add either @code{--extra-libs=/usr/lib/values-xpg6.o}
|
|
or @code{--extra-libs=/usr/lib/64/values-xpg6.o} to the configure options
|
|
since the libc is not c99-compliant by default. The probes performed by
|
|
configure may raise an exception leading to the death of configure itself
|
|
due to a bug in the system shell. Simply invoke a different shell such as
|
|
bash directly to work around this:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
bash ./configure
|
|
@end example
|
|

@section Darwin (Mac OS X, iPhone)
|
|
|
|
The toolchain provided with Xcode is sufficient to build the basic
|
|
unacelerated code.
|
|
|
|
Mac OS X on PowerPC or ARM (iPhone) requires a preprocessor from
|
|
@url{http://github.com/yuvi/gas-preprocessor} to build the optimized
|
|
assembler functions. Just download the Perl script and put it somewhere
|
|
in your PATH, FFmpeg's configure will pick it up automatically.
|
|
|
|
Mac OS X on amd64 and x86 requires @command{yasm} to build most of the
|
|
optimized assembler functions. @uref{http://www.finkproject.org/, Fink},
|
|
@uref{http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/bootstrap-macos.xml, Gentoo Prefix},
|
|
@uref{http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/, Homebrew}
|
|
or @uref{http://www.macports.org, MacPorts} can easily provide it.

@section Native Windows compilation using MinGW or MinGW-w64
|
|
|
|
FFmpeg can be built to run natively on Windows using the MinGW or MinGW-w64
|
|
toolchains. Install the latest versions of MSYS and MinGW or MinGW-w64 from
|
|
@url{http://www.mingw.org/} or @url{http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/}.
|
|
You can find detailed installation instructions in the download section and
|
|
the FAQ.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
|
|
@item Building natively using MSYS can be sped up by disabling implicit rules
|
|
in the Makefile by calling @code{make -r} instead of plain @code{make}. This
|
|
speed up is close to non-existent for normal one-off builds and is only
|
|
noticeable when running make for a second time (for example during
|
|
@code{make install}).
|
|
|
|
@item In order to compile FFplay, you must have the MinGW development library
|
|
of @uref{http://www.libsdl.org/, SDL} and @code{pkg-config} installed.
|
|
|
|
@item By using @code{./configure --enable-shared} when configuring FFmpeg,
|
|
you can build the FFmpeg libraries (e.g. libavutil, libavcodec,
|
|
libavformat) as DLLs.
|
|
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@section Microsoft Visual C++ or Intel C++ Compiler for Windows
|
|
|
|
FFmpeg can be built with MSVC or ICL using a C99-to-C89 conversion utility and
|
|
wrapper. For ICL, only the wrapper is used, since ICL supports C99.
|
|
|
|
You will need the following prerequisites:
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item @uref{http://download.videolan.org/pub/contrib/c99-to-c89/, C99-to-C89 Converter & Wrapper}
|
|
@item @uref{http://code.google.com/p/msinttypes/, msinttypes}
|
|
@item @uref{http://www.mingw.org/, MSYS}
|
|
@item @uref{http://yasm.tortall.net/, YASM}
|
|
@item @uref{http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/bc.htm, bc for Windows} if
|
|
you want to run @uref{fate.html, FATE}.
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
To set up a proper environment in MSYS, you need to run @code{msys.bat} from
|
|
the Visual Studio or Intel Compiler command prompt.
|
|
|
|
Place @code{makedef}, @code{c99wrap.exe}, @code{c99conv.exe}, and @code{yasm.exe}
|
|
somewhere in your @code{PATH}.
|
|
|
|
Next, make sure @code{inttypes.h} and any other headers and libs you want to use
|
|
are located in a spot that the compiler can see. Do so by modifying the @code{LIB}
|
|
and @code{INCLUDE} environment variables to include the @strong{Windows} paths to
|
|
these directories. Alternatively, you can try and use the
|
|
@code{--extra-cflags}/@code{--extra-ldflags} configure options.
|
|
|
|
Finally, run:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
For MSVC:
|
|
./configure --toolchain=msvc
|
|
|
|
For ICL:
|
|
./configure --toolchain=icl
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
If you wish to compile shared libraries, add @code{--enable-shared} to your
|
|
configure options. Note that due to the way MSVC and ICL handle DLL imports and
|
|
exports, you cannot compile static and shared libraries at the same time, and
|
|
enabling shared libraries will automatically disable the static ones.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
|
|
@item It is possible that coreutils' @code{link.exe} conflicts with MSVC's linker.
|
|
You can find out by running @code{which link} to see which @code{link.exe} you
|
|
are using. If it is located at @code{/bin/link.exe}, then you have the wrong one
|
|
in your @code{PATH}. Either move or remove that copy, or make sure MSVC's
|
|
@code{link.exe} takes precedence in your @code{PATH} over coreutils'.
|
|
|
|
@item If you wish to build with zlib support, you will have to grab a compatible
|
|
zlib binary from somewhere, with an MSVC import lib, or if you wish to link
|
|
statically, you can follow the instructions below to build a compatible
|
|
@code{zlib.lib} with MSVC. Regardless of which method you use, you must still
|
|
follow step 3, or compilation will fail.
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
@item Grab the @uref{http://zlib.net/, zlib sources}.
|
|
@item Edit @code{win32/Makefile.msc} so that it uses -MT instead of -MD, since
|
|
this is how FFmpeg is built as well.
|
|
@item Edit @code{zconf.h} and remove its inclusion of @code{unistd.h}. This gets
|
|
erroneously included when building FFmpeg.
|
|
@item Run @code{nmake -f win32/Makefile.msc}.
|
|
@item Move @code{zlib.lib}, @code{zconf.h}, and @code{zlib.h} to somewhere MSVC
|
|
can see.
|
|
@end enumerate
|
|
|
|
@item FFmpeg has been tested with the following on i686 and x86_64:
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item Visual Studio 2010 Pro and Express
|
|
@item Visual Studio 2012 Pro and Express
|
|
@item Intel Composer XE 2013

Anything else is not officially supported.
|
|
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
@subsection Linking to FFmpeg with Microsoft Visual C++
|
|
|
|
If you plan to link with MSVC-built static libraries, you will need
|
|
to make sure you have @code{Runtime Library} set to
|
|
@code{Multi-threaded (/MT)} in your project's settings.
|
|
|
|
You will need to define @code{inline} to something MSVC understands:
|
|
@example
|
|
#define inline __inline
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Also note, that as stated in @strong{Microsoft Visual C++}, you will need
|
|
an MSVC-compatible @uref{http://code.google.com/p/msinttypes/, inttypes.h}.
|
|
|
|
If you plan on using import libraries created by dlltool, you must
|
|
set @code{References} to @code{No (/OPT:NOREF)} under the linker optimization
|
|
settings, otherwise the resulting binaries will fail during runtime.
|
|
This is not required when using import libraries generated by @code{lib.exe}.
|
|
This issue is reported upstream at
|
|
@url{http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12633}.
|
|
|
|
To create import libraries that work with the @code{/OPT:REF} option
|
|
(which is enabled by default in Release mode), follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
@enumerate
|
|
|
|
@item Open the @emph{Visual Studio Command Prompt}.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, in a normal command line prompt, call @file{vcvars32.bat}
|
|
which sets up the environment variables for the Visual C++ tools
|
|
(the standard location for this file is something like
|
|
@file{C:\Program Files (x86_\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat}).
|
|
|
|
@item Enter the @file{bin} directory where the created LIB and DLL files
|
|
are stored.
|
|
|
|
@item Generate new import libraries with @command{lib.exe}:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
lib /machine:i386 /def:..\lib\foo-version.def /out:foo.lib
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Replace @code{foo-version} and @code{foo} with the respective library names.
|
|
|
|
@end enumerate

@section Cross compilation for Windows with Linux
|
|
|
|
You must use the MinGW cross compilation tools available at
|
|
@url{http://www.mingw.org/}.
|
|
|
|
Then configure FFmpeg with the following options:
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure --target-os=mingw32 --cross-prefix=i386-mingw32msvc-
|
|
@end example
|
|
(you can change the cross-prefix according to the prefix chosen for the
|
|
MinGW tools).
|
|
|
|
Then you can easily test FFmpeg with @uref{http://www.winehq.com/, Wine}.
|
|
|
|
@section Compilation under Cygwin
|
|
|
|
Please use Cygwin 1.7.x as the obsolete 1.5.x Cygwin versions lack
|
|
llrint() in its C library.
|
|
|
|
Install your Cygwin with all the "Base" packages, plus the
|
|
following "Devel" ones:
|
|
@example
|
|
binutils, gcc4-core, make, git, mingw-runtime, texi2html
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
In order to run FATE you will also need the following "Utils" packages:
|
|
@example
|
|
bc, diffutils
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
If you want to build FFmpeg with additional libraries, download Cygwin
|
|
"Devel" packages for Ogg and Vorbis from any Cygwin packages repository:
|
|
@example
|
|
libogg-devel, libvorbis-devel
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
These library packages are only available from
|
|
@uref{http://sourceware.org/cygwinports/, Cygwin Ports}:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
yasm, libSDL-devel, libfaac-devel, libaacplus-devel, libgsm-devel, libmp3lame-devel,
|
|
libschroedinger1.0-devel, speex-devel, libtheora-devel, libxvidcore-devel
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
The recommendation for x264 is to build it from source, as it evolves too
|
|
quickly for Cygwin Ports to be up to date.
|
|
|
|
@section Crosscompilation for Windows under Cygwin
|
|
|
|
With Cygwin you can create Windows binaries that do not need the cygwin1.dll.
|
|
|
|
Just install your Cygwin as explained before, plus these additional
|
|
"Devel" packages:
|
|
@example
|
|
gcc-mingw-core, mingw-runtime, mingw-zlib
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
and add some special flags to your configure invocation.
|
|
|
|
For a static build run
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure --target-os=mingw32 --extra-cflags=-mno-cygwin --extra-libs=-mno-cygwin
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
and for a build with shared libraries
|
|
@example
|
|
./configure --target-os=mingw32 --enable-shared --disable-static --extra-cflags=-mno-cygwin --extra-libs=-mno-cygwin
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@chapter Plan 9
|
|
|
|
The native @uref{http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/, Plan 9} compiler
|
|
does not implement all the C99 features needed by FFmpeg so the gcc
|
|
port must be used. Furthermore, a few items missing from the C
|
|
library and shell environment need to be fixed.
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
|
|
@item GNU awk, grep, make, and sed
|
|
|
|
Working packages of these tools can be found at
|
|
@uref{http://code.google.com/p/ports2plan9/downloads/list, ports2plan9}.
|
|
They can be installed with @uref{http://9front.org/, 9front's} @code{pkg}
|
|
utility by setting @code{pkgpath} to
|
|
@code{http://ports2plan9.googlecode.com/files/}.
|
|
|
|
@item Missing/broken @code{head} and @code{printf} commands
|
|
|
|
Replacements adequate for building FFmpeg can be found in the
|
|
@code{compat/plan9} directory. Place these somewhere they will be
|
|
found by the shell. These are not full implementations of the
|
|
commands and are @emph{not} suitable for general use.
|
|
|
|
@item Missing C99 @code{stdint.h} and @code{inttypes.h}
|
|
|
|
Replacement headers are available from
|
|
@url{http://code.google.com/p/plan9front/issues/detail?id=152}.
|
|
|
|
@item Missing or non-standard library functions
|
|
|
|
Some functions in the C library are missing or incomplete. The
|
|
@code{@uref{http://ports2plan9.googlecode.com/files/gcc-apelibs-1207.tbz,
|
|
gcc-apelibs-1207}} package from
|
|
@uref{http://code.google.com/p/ports2plan9/downloads/list, ports2plan9}
|
|
includes an updated C library, but installing the full package gives
|
|
unusable executables. Instead, keep the files from @code{gccbin.tgz}
|
|
under @code{/386/lib/gnu}. From the @code{libc.a} archive in the
|
|
@code{gcc-apelibs-1207} package, extract the following object files and
|
|
turn them into a library:
|
|
|
|
@itemize
|
|
@item @code{strerror.o}
|
|
@item @code{strtoll.o}
|
|
@item @code{snprintf.o}
|
|
@item @code{vsnprintf.o}
|
|
@item @code{vfprintf.o}
|
|
@item @code{_IO_getc.o}
|
|
@item @code{_IO_putc.o}
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
|
|
Use the @code{--extra-libs} option of @code{configure} to inform the
|
|
build system of this library.
|
|
|
|
@item FPU exceptions enabled by default
|
|
|
|
Unlike most other systems, Plan 9 enables FPU exceptions by default.
|
|
These must be disabled before calling any FFmpeg functions. While the
|
|
included tools will do this automatically, other users of the
|
|
libraries must do it themselves.
