[Audacity-devel] Adding "Import Audio" support on ARM

[Ajay G. <aja...@gm...>]

Hi all.

I have been trying since 3 days to get the "Import Audio" to work in
armv7l-based F14.
For this, I have followed these steps ::


a)
I first tried with the simple audacity package.
In this when I tried to "Import Audio", it said "This version of Audacity
was not compiled with MP3 files support".

b)
I then downloaded "audacity-freeworld-1.3.12-0.1.3.beta.fc14.src.rpm";
"rpm -ivh audacity-freeworld-1.3.12-0.1.3.beta.fc14.src.rpm"

and ran

./configure --with-portmixer="local"
make

c)
This generated the "audacity" binary in
"~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/audacity-src-1.3.12-beta".


d)
Now when I ran audacity, I was asked to set the location of "lame" and
"ffmpeg" libraries.


e)
I then compiled and installed "libmp3lame*" (from
"lame-3.98.4-1.fc14.src.rpm")
and
                                           "libavformat.so.52" (from
"ffmpeg-0.7.11.tar.bz2")
libraries.


f)
After that when I set the location of these libraries in "Edit ->
Preferences -> Libraries", it recognised LAME (as "MP3 Library Version:
LAME 3.98.4");
but it still says FFmpeg Library Version: FFmpeg library not found, EVEN
THOUGH I HAVE LOCATED THE PATH OF "libavformat.so.52".


Any ideas?
I will be really grateful.


Thanks and Regards,
Ajay
