Has anyone ever gotton ffmpeg to successfully compile and run? It's supposed to be a video converter, but it's open source, and well I'm sure you know how many open source projects actually work out of the box (can you spell zero)
1) Here is the site:
http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/
2) The INSTALL file says to run ./configure before typing make
3) Here is the error I get when I try to configure:
Code:
-bash-3.00$ ./configure
Unable to create and execute files in /tmp. Set the TMPDIR environment
variable to another directory and make sure that /tmp is not mounted
noexec.
Sanity test failed.
If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from SVN. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
ffmpeg-devel@mplayerhq.hu mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net.
Include the log file "config.err" produced by configure as this will help
solving the problem.
a) There is a /tmp directory in my root folder. I tried setting it's permissions are set to 777 just to make sure.
b) I created a secondary tmp folder under the current folder...still didn't work.
Ideas anyone?
