    Dear sir,

    After working for a while, I can install xvidcap into SUSE Linux 9.3. The problem now I have is, I cannot setup the program to record mpeg video, only one setting - X11 Window Dump (xwd) is available in File Format setting. Please give me some hints, I am new to Linux. Thanks a lot!

      Chances are you've built from source and for some reason building the required ffmpeg libraries has failed.
      When you extract the source tarball and run "./configure" you will notice a lot of output. At some point it'll say "make-ing prerequisite ffmpeg libraries". Send the output from there to where the next tests start again (testing for ....).

      Thanks for your prompt reply. I found the following error in "./configure":

      uded from libavdevice/v4l2.c:38:
      /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h:436: error: syntax error before '*' token
      /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h:438: error: syntax error before '*' token
      /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h:439: error: syntax error before '}' token
      /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h:810: error: field `win' has incomplete type
      make: *** [libavdevice/v4l2.o] Error 1

      I am still working on why this happens.

      I have the same problem here. How can I go back and recompile the whole thing?

        What are the lines directly following the build?
        After the lines you pasted, ffmpeg will be built. Once that is done, configure will start testing for xvidcap prerequisites again with ffmpeg built. Please provide the last say 30 lines of the ffmpeg build and then the first 30 lines of where configure starts to test again.
        Thanks,

        Karl.
