libva-headless is recommended over libva

Update system pacman -Syu --ignore=dav1d(x265,x264 ...etc)

Update package ignoring deps pacman -Sd dav1d(x265,x264 ...etc)

then rebuild AUR package against new library

@peippo
Okay, from now on I'll try to stick to the “Rebuild versions" of the FFmpeg package.

libvpx just had its so-version increase:

:: unable to satisfy dependency 'libvpx.so=11-64' required by ffmpeg-headless'

Could you bump the pkgrel, so users don‘t need to rebuild manually? Thanks!

You can use https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/archive/refs/tags/n8.0.1.tar.gz as source to speed up building and remove git dependency.

Build fails with these errors:
resolving dependencies... warning: cannot resolve "libplacebo.so=349-64", a dependency of "ffmpeg-headless" warning: cannot resolve "libx265.so=212-64", a dependency of "ffmpeg-headless"

Since upgrading to vmaf 3.0 ffprobe failes with cannot load shared library libvmaf.so.1. One solution is to add libvmaf-compat as a dependency.

Currently the build fails with libavcodec/x86/mathops.h:125: Error: operand type mismatch for 'shr', see: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/79281?project=1&string=ffmpeg

To fix this, add the following prepare function:

prepare() {
    cd ffmpeg
    git cherry-pick -n effadce6c756247ea8bae32dc13bb3e6f464f0eb # Fix assembling with binutil as >= 2.41
}

@hashworks I try to keep as close as possible to the ffmpeg package in the repos, so I'd rather not do that, if it were to be added the the repo package I will however add it. (Unless there is a really good reason I should add it)

hashworks commented on 2023-03-21 19:07 (UTC)

Could you include openh264 (--enable-libopenh264)?

katt commented on 2023-01-31 15:43 (UTC)

@lapicidae Thanks for the heads up, added the patch.

add in PKGBUILD -> prepare()

git cherry-pick -n eb0455d64690eed0068e5cb202f72ecdf899837c # hwcontext_vulkan: remove optional encode/decode extensions from the list
