[FFmpeg-user] Specifying lib path when building ffmpeg

[Matteo Naccari]

Hi Sven,

Thanks for your reply! I've also tried with the space between the two -L command but same as before.

Best regards,
Matteo

This codec uses some boost libraries which ship with the source code. However, when I build ffmpeg enabling the Turing codec (--enable-libturing) I can see that the executable of ffmpeg links the system's boost libraries. Is there a way to link to the libraries associated with the Turing codec? I've tried the --extra-ldflags option but no joy. The way I configure the build is the following:

The line with:

--extra-ldflags="-L$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib-L/path/to/turing/source/code/build/release/boost"

should say:

--extra-ldflags="-L$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib -L/path/to/turing/source/code/build/release/boost"

It's missing a blank between the two -L<path> arguments.
