[gst-devel] problems compiling ffmpeg-gstreamer plugin for ARM

[John Faith]

Hi Norbert,
I've built gst-ffmpeg 0.10.3 for the i.MX31ADS using the ltib tool 
(http://www.bitshrine.org).  The build did something like this:

./configure --prefix=/usr --host=arm-linux --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu 
--without-check --disable-altivec
make
make install DESTDIR=/path/to/rootfs
find /path/to/rootfs/usr/lib/ -name '*.la' | xargs rm -f

The target files created in my environment were:
/path/to/rootfs/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.a
/path/to/rootfs/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.so
/path/to/rootfs/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstpostproc.a
/path/to/rootfs/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstpostproc.so

Did you save the output when you did 'make install' to see where files 
were put?

,
John
