@yaspoon Thanks! Your patched PKGBUILD got me back up and running.

I managed to get it to build by patching the PKGBUILD and zoneminder src to build against the ffmpeg4.4 package

I've pushed a branch with the changes here if anyone else is interested: https://github.com/yaspoon/aur-zoneminder/tree/switch_to_ffmpeg44

Upstream issue for supporting ffmpeg 7 https://github.com/ZoneMinder/zoneminder/issues/3983

@simona That issue is due to an incompatibility with FFmpeg 7.0, see the previous comments for more info and a workaround.

As already observed, this isn't something that can be fixed by simply rebuilding against FFmpeg 7.0. It's been a known issue for a while now, but FFmpeg 7.0 hadn't hit the Arch repos until very recently so we weren't affected by it. The good news is that the latest upstream has already applied the required changes, so all we can do is wait until a new tagged version is released.

In the meanwhile, downgrading FFmpeg to the latest 6.x version, like @synthead did, should work fine.

Downgrading ffmpeg to 2:6.1.1-7 and x265 to 3.5-3 makes this work as a workaround.

This package doesn't seem to build:

after running garuda-update, zoneminder no longer shows my cameras, it appears zmc won't start. zmc -m 3 zmc: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.60: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory it looks like libavformat.so is now version 61, along with libavcodec.so, and this package needs to be rebuilt

Edit: it looks like this is multi-distro issue, all 1.36 versions seem to have it, but they haven't done a 1.37 official relase yet, manually built 1.37 and its working.
