Thank you very much.

Could you tell how I would be able to link x264 encoder for H264 and not v4l4m2m. To invoke x264 encoder with the source code.

Thanks in advance,

Kind Regards,

Adhuran

You need a V4L2 video device to use that encoder. If you haven't already done this, run "ls -l /dev/video*", and make sure there is a video device and you have permission to write to it. If that doesn't help, you should raise the logging level of libav and see if it tells you what went wrong.

[h264_v4l2m2m @ 0x114ac00] Could not find a valid device
[h264_v4l2m2m @ 0x114ac00] can't configure encoder

May I know, why I get this error and how I could solve this?

Adhuran.
