Hey folks what do you think of building the ffmpeg framework on beagleboard itself ?

Hi i am thinking of building the ffmpeg framework on beagleboard
itself ?Is it a good way to proceed,i am following this approach
because a component[ ffplay executable ] of the framework is not
getting generated properly for the board,cross-compiled from PC ?

you can do that, but there is no need, ffmpeg/libav cross compiles
fine for the beagleboard, or just use a prebuilt one
via opkg install....

Hi Vladimir,

The problem is not with the libav* but the problem is with the ffplay
executable....

yes, ffplay is part of ffmpeg/libav...

Hi,

No,it's a component which uses libav's but libav's so's get generated
but the ffplay is not generated when you cross-compile,and opkg update
fails on board because of less speed,the connection times out...

Thanks for your precious inputs....
