ffmpeg needs jack-libs : md5sum: jack-lib.tcz.md5.txt: No such file or directory

[ian57]

Hi,

I try to install ffmpeg on picore 5.2 but i get this error :

$ tce-load -wi ffmpeg
Downloading: jack-lib.tcz
Connecting to repo.tinycorelinux.net (89.22.99.37:80)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
md5sum: jack-lib.tcz.md5.txt: No such file or directory
Error on jack-lib.tcz


An idea?

looks like it is missing from the repo.

[ian57]

Ok, but it can be dependency problem too. Perhaps it is replaced by the jack2 package ?

[bmarkus]

gstreamer/ffmpeg under rebuild, please waite a bit for the new pack. In the mean time you can remove jack-lib from the .dep

[ian57]

Ok thanks for the informations

I tried to remove the lib-jack line in .dep file, but it is re downloaded when i run tce-load -wi again.

I will try without w ;-)

In the repo no change, so -iw will use the old .dep

[bmarkus]

Please try ffmpeg2.tcz

[ian57]

Ok I'll try this today, and come back to give feedback. Thanks a lot

everything is ok for installation, all dependancies are here, downloaded and installed... need now how to make ffplay work  with frame buffer :-)

What is the problem? ffplay is using SDL/Xorg/fbturbo out of box. Of course it is slow for movie playback in most cases, but there are slow resolution videos can be played, depending on codec.

In console i can't play video. :

Could not initialize SDL - Unable to open a console terminal
(Did you set the DISPLAY variable?)

Under X11 it's working but very slow.
With debian I use omxplayer which runs well in console mode (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ji912xM5OY0 the starting video ie played by omxplayer while the system is started)

[bmarkus]

Yes, it is slow but not on piCore but on other distros as well. omxplayer is an exception, it is not using the Linux video stack but deals hardware directly. So if you need video playback on the Rpi, use omxplayer.

Latest SDL2 can play hw accelerated video too, but ffmpeg works with SDL only, not SDL2.

SItuation will change only when hw accelerated video driver will be available for Xorg. Hopefully it will happen, as Broadcom announced to make the currently closed driver open source:

[ian57]

ok thanks for all the informations. It explains everything. I need to compile omxplayer on picore to use it. I think there is no extension for now?

[bmarkus]

omxplayer is not in the repo.

[ian57]

Yes I checked that. No problem. I will try to build it.
