Please, this package follow Arch Linux ffmpeg package version (not the staging or the testing one).

Don't put ffmpeg-obs out-of-date if both packages are on the same version. If you do, you might be ignored in the future.

OBS Project actually patch FFmpeg to fix some issues and also add RIST support starting from 27.2.

So I created this package, a ffmpeg package that ensure that you have those.

I really wanted to not do this but some fixes are needed, so I did my best to add those "feature-set options".

They allow you to build ffmpeg with feature-set based on other ffmpeg packages from AUR.

Read the PKGBUILD for more information about them.

As a note, if you want debug symbols, you have to set FFMPEG_OBS_DEBUG

AND

add this to the PKGBUILD

options=('!strip')

@tytan652 ffmpeg is moving their upstream git repo to forgejo hosted at https://code.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/ffmpeg. You can read about the announcement here, they want people to start using it "effective [immediately]".

need to be rebuilt

for some reason rockchip-mpp is causing a very minor issue in my fish install. whenever I type mpv . for the first time (not pressing enter) in a terminal session it will print out the following error:

mpp[588415]: kmpp_obj: kmpp_objdef_get invalid param def 0x7908daa81f10 name 0x7908da9f74c4 objs (nil)
mpp[588415]: kmpp_frame: kmpp_frame_init KMPP_OBJ_NAME init failed

Would it be possible to add a toggle to disable whatever feature in ffmpeg requires it if it isn't necessary?

For those building with:

FFMPEG_OBS_CUDA="ON"
FFMPEG_OBS_SVT="ON"
FFMPEG_OBS_VULKAN="ON"

I believe the issue is related to the --enable-cuda-nvcc flag as that was what breaks my builds in a clean chroot...

Here's my patch to get a successful build (I'll try to keep this comment updated with each commit until it builds successfully on its own):

For people getting an "incompatible pointer type" error when building libavdevice/v4l2.c in version 7.1.1, you may want to apply the patch in this bug ticket until they fix it upstream. https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/11570

The newest commit still fails to build with FFMPEG_OBS_CUDA="ON" with the same error described in my previous comment.

I did take the time to perform a clean chroot build just to confirm there was nothing strange about my specific environment. I did have a few older versions of gcc installed (including gcc-11 which I have removed). The clean chroot build only had gcc-15 and gcc-14 (as gcc-14 is required for CUDA - the latest version is built against gcc-14).

If anyone else runs FFMPEG_OBS_CUDA="ON" here are the patches I did to get a successful build:

EDIT: 2025-05-25: Added another comment above with a patch to the current PKGBUILD file (also creates another .patch file to update ffmpeg's stock configure script to reference c++14 (instead of c++11)...

Hi @tytan652,

After a recent pacman -Syu (today actually - 5/10/2025) I couldn't get this to build. ffmpeg's ./configure process was relying on c++11 for the nvccflags...

Seeing as my installed cuda package was built against gcc14 I was able to get the package to build with the following patches:

nvccflags_cpp14.patch:

 if enabled x86_64 || enabled ppc64 || enabled aarch64; then
     nvccflags="$nvccflags -m64"

Previously, it would fail with the following error:

==> Starting build()...
ERROR: failed checking for nvcc.

If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from Git.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.libera.chat.
Include the log file "ffbuild/config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solve the problem.

Hope that helps.

dreieck commented on 2025-03-27 15:57 (UTC)

If you have glibc in the depends array (which is part of the core group and thus not needed), then you also can add gcc-libs: 

ffmpeg-obs W: Dependency gcc-libs detected and implicitly satisfied (libraries ['usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6', 'usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1'] needed in files ['usr/lib/libavdevice.so.61.3.100'])

Regards and thanks for this package!

DodoGTA commented on 2025-02-08 15:15 (UTC)

Can you add a fix patch to this custom FFmpeg package?: https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/list/?series=13662

Upstream seems to be relatively slow (at least at the moment)
