[FFmpeg-user] Compiling failure

[Alexandre Schenberg]

It worked. Also, I downloaded the newest version and just saying
make=V1 work there.

However, in both cases, after a good time of compilation, I get this:

"gcc  -o doc/print_options doc/print_options.o -lm
doc/print_options format > doc/avoptions_format.texi
doc/print_options codec > doc/avoptions_codec.texi
awk '/^@(verbatim)?include/ { printf "doc/ffmpeg.html: doc/%s\n", $2
}' <doc/ffmpeg.texi >doc/ffmpeg.html.d
texi2html -I doc -monolithic --init-file ./doc/t2h.init --output
doc/ffmpeg.html doc/ffmpeg.texi
Unknown option: init-file
Try 'texi2html -help' for usage instructions.
make: *** [doc/ffmpeg.html] Error 2"
