Building Gstreamer on Mac OS X - 10.6.8

Another question

I tried creating an application using gstreamer and gst-plugins-good installed.
The application fails to compile because of the dependency on glib. What are all the dependencies I need to build install for creating application using gstreamer on Mac-OSX 10.6.8.

Basically my goal is to change the video renderer element(of a stable release for example sdk-release-sdk-2013.6) and build an application using that.
If modifying the recipes is the better option, what are the steps in which I can do this?

I am trying to use "cerbero shell" to build gstreamer-sdk with tag sdk-release-sdk-2013.6<http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer-sdk/gst-plugins-good/tag/?id=sdk-release-sdk-2013.6>.
So I cloned gstreamer, gst-plugins-good and gst-ffmpeg and used git checkout sdk-release-sdk-2013.6<http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer-sdk/gst-plugins-good/tag/?id=sdk-release-sdk-2013.6>.
While I could build gstreamer and gst-plugins-good successfully, gst-ffmpeg build fails saying "libavcodec/x86/cabac.h:91:error: cant find a register in classs 'GENERAL_REGS' while reloading asm.
I used the same option sh autogen.sh --disable-gtk-doc  as with gstreamer and gst-plugins-good.
What are the configuration options to be used with gst-ffmpeg?

I applied the patch. It seems to be working fine. The build process is currently going on.
Here my aim is to do some changes to the existing filters and build SDK from that. What changes are required to the above process to build the projects on the disk?

Once you have everything built you can build custom branches in 2 ways:
  1) Using the shell in cerbero: call "cerbero shell" and use the regular autogen.sh + make + make install process
  2) modifying the recipes to use a different origin/branch/commit to build.
If you just want to build other projects that depends on GStreamer use cerbero's shell directly.

Please find the log file attached.
Other thing, It didn't prompt me for password when "./cerbero-uninstalled bootstrap" is executed.

Can you try this patch and report back if it worked. It's only adding a 'sudo' to fix the permissions and should now prompt you for the password

Thanks for your email.

I executed the following commands one after the other, it exited showing at the bottom.

- git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer-sdk/cerbero<http://anongit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer-sdk/cerbero>
- ./cerbero-uninstalled bootstrap


Can you please help me fixing this?
Apart from this, Don't I need to download the gstreamer code explicitly? If not needed, how do I control version of gstreamer cerbero downloads?

Yes: http://docs.gstreamer.com/display/GstSDK/Building+from+source+using+Cerbero

However I would recommend to use the following cerbero branch "upstream-1.0" instead of the old 0.10 version:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~slomo/cerbero/log/?h=upstream-1.0

For that replace the "package" step from the instructions with "package gstreamer-1.0" instead of "package gstreamer-sdk".
