My ultimate goal is to convert WMV to FLV on Linux (RHEL4, AMD64). I've
tried straight up ffmpeg, but it doesn't work unless you can compile the
VC1 reference encoder in. I can't get the reference implementation to
compile at all, the instructions here
http://multimedia.cx/eggs/hooking-up-the-smpte-vc-1-decoder-in-ffmpeg/
don't work. The make command fails.
I then read about using mencoder with the Windows binary DLLs. I got
mplayer to find the win32 .dll's but as I'm on a 64 bit OS, those DLL's
don't work. Argh.
Is there an easy workaround for either of these problems? Another
option I've overlooked?
Thanks
