[MPlayer-users] faad2 help

[Michael A. Peters]

I ran across an mp4 video that didn't play right.
video was fine, but no audio.

mplayer output regarding audio:

Requested audio codec family [faad] (afm=faad) not available (enable it
at compilation)

so I compile and install libsndfile-1.0.4

I try to compile faad2 and first I have to edit the
faad2/frontend/audio.c file.

I changed:
aufile->sfinfo.samples  = 0;
to
aufile->sfinfo.frames  = 0;

(the sndfile.h header file says it changed)

That got me farther - but then I ran into a bunch of unresolved symbol
file later on:

make[1]: *** [faad] Error 1

I'm using the gcc on Red Hat 8

-=-
I know this isn't the faad2 help list (I asked on their forum too) - but
I'm guessing people here might have run into this problem?

Thanks for any suggestions. I'd really like to get past this so I can
rebuild my mplayer :D
