1 | FFmpeg examples README |
2 | ---------------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | Both following use cases rely on pkg-config and make, thus make sure | |
5 | that you have them installed and working on your system. | |
6 | ||
7 | ||
8 | Method 1: build the installed examples in a generic read/write user directory | |
9 | ||
10 | Copy to a read/write user directory and just use "make", it will link | |
11 | to the libraries on your system, assuming the PKG_CONFIG_PATH is | |
12 | correctly configured. | |
13 | ||
14 | Method 2: build the examples in-tree | |
15 | ||
16 | Assuming you are in the source FFmpeg checkout directory, you need to build | |
17 | FFmpeg (no need to make install in any prefix). Then just run "make examples". | |
18 | This will build the examples using the FFmpeg build system. You can clean those | |
19 | examples using "make examplesclean" | |
20 | ||
21 | If you want to try the dedicated Makefile examples (to emulate the first | |
22 | method), go into doc/examples and run a command such as | |
23 | PKG_CONFIG_PATH=pc-uninstalled make. |
