lqt_ffmpeg plugin lib needs -lavcodec

[Tom Shield]

I found I had to edit the plugins/ffmpeg/Makefile line

libswscale_libs = -L/usr3/local/lib -lswscale -lavutil -lavcodec

(I configured with --prefix=/usr3/local)

to add the -lavcodec to get the lqt_ffmpeg.so object to load without the error:

lqt_ffmpeg.so: undefined symbol: avcodec_alloc_frame

This is on Fedora 7 with ffmpeg version 2007-10-19 and libquicktime 1.0.1.

Does the problem go away if you change line 18 of plugins/ffmpeg/Makefile.am from

lqt_ffmpeg_la_LIBADD = @MODULE_LIBADD@ @AVCODEC_LIBS@ $(libswscale_libs)

to

lqt_ffmpeg_la_LIBADD = @MODULE_LIBADD@ $(libswscale_libs) @AVCODEC_LIBS@

?
