[Libav-user] Unrecognized option 'fec'.

[Steve Calzone]

Hi,
I am trying to create an RTP with FEC output from ffmpeg and receive the error “Unrecognized option ‘fec’” when running this incantation:

ffmpeg -re -i filename.ts -c copy -map 0 -fec prompeg=l=5:d=20 rtp://<IP>:5000

Is prompeg supposed to be in the distribution?  If so, how to enable support for FEC? If not, do I need to recompile and which libs to enable?
Thanks,
Steve
