[Libav-user] 'Undefined reference'-error when using functions of libavcodec, compiling in Linux

[Anders Branderud]

Hello!

When I run the encoding example (code inserted to the following cc-file)
provided in doc/examples of the FFMpeg-library and compile it with the line
*linux-y8h9:/home/anders/Programs # g++ videofecencoder.cc -lavformat
-lavcodec -lavutil*
*
*
I get the following error message:
/tmp/ccDQpTY5.o: In function `video_encode_example(char const*, int)':
videofecencoder.cc:(.text+0x30): undefined reference to
`avcodec_find_encoder(CodecID)'

I have tried the same using two different Ubuntu-installations. The above
compilation was performed using OpenSUSE installed in a VirtualBox. I did
the above at a new installation of OpenSUSE. After installing it I
downloaded the required libraries using the libraries provided in the
Software repository called 'PackMan'.

How do I resolve this?
Thanks in advance!
