The FFmpeg/Libav's compilation method for PotPlayer

[최진형]

I don't guarantee this translation is correct. Because my English skill is bad and I am not Potplayer's developer.

1. Preparing Compiler
 You use MPC-BE's compiler(http://dev.mpc-next.ru/index.php/topic,1829.0.html,  http://117.52.4.235/beta/msys_be_20131017.7z ) or MPC-HC's compiler(http://xhmikosr.1f0.de/tools/MSYS_MinGW-w64_GCC_482_x86-x64.7z,  http://117.52.4.235/beta/MSYS_MinGW-w64_GCC_482_x86-x64.7z). You unpack this file and execute msys.bat. And to check gcc's execution, you enter gcc -v. Next, you make directory in msys.bat's folder.
ex)mkdir Workspace
cd Workspace

2. Preparing Source
 You can download FFmpeg in http://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html. And you can also download Libav in http://www.libav.org/download.html The file you download moves the folder that we made in the first chapter. You unpack by entering tar -xvzf COMPRESSIONS FILE'S NAME. If contents are FFmpeg, you change this folder's name into ffmpeg, if contents are Libav, you change that folder's name into libav. Beacuse the unpacked folders' names contain kinds of hash code.

3. Compiling
 Compiling in original source folder is ok. But the folder will be contaminated by many different files. So I recommend you to make new folder.

----------------------

mkdir ffmpeg_dll

cd ffmpeg_dll

../ffmpeg/configure

make [-jTHE NUMBER OF CPU]

 

gcc -I. -I../ffmpeg -c -O2 AdditionalFunc.c

 

dllwrap -Wl,--enable-stdcall-fixup --export-all-symbols -s -o FFmpeg.dll \
 AdditionalFunc.o \
 libavcodec/libavcodec.a \
 libavutil/libavutil.a \
 -lws2_32 -lz -lbz2 -lpthread

strip FFmpeg.dll

----------------------

You copy the created file into Potplayer's Module/FFmpeg.

Libav is also done by similar means, you refer to the attachment.

END!!

Ps. AdditionalFunc.c is in the attachment

FFmpegCompile.zip
