Avidemux Forum

Hi,

avidemux fail to build with faac 2.x
2.1 introduced soname libflac1
2.2 introduced soname libflac2

Also, as ffmpeg already support faac audio, that's a good idea to have two aac encoder/decoder ?

Hi. I'm posting here to report a strange behaviour in the "Save" window. I'm using a MacBook Pro 2023 16" with M3 Pro with MacOS Tahoe, version 2.8.1 compiled by Kadiwa and available here.
When I'm in the "Save" window the four arrow keys don't move the cursor in the name tab, but they continue to move the position bar by frames or cut points.
UPDATE: on another build available here the arrow keys work correctly.
By the way, in every Avidemux release I tried - as fas as I remember - text can't be pasted in the name tab. That would be an useful feature.

do you mean the Dockerfiles for containerized build and create*FromSource*.bash convenience scripts? FFmpeg

Hi,

No, I build Debian packages with cmake and the build fail from the ffmpeg side.

CMake Error at cmake/admFFmpegBuild_helpers.cmake:323 (MESSAGE):
  configure output is <nasm not found or too old.  Please install/update nasm
  or use --disable-x86asm for a build without hand-optimized assembly.
But before trying to build ffmpeg, cmake only check for yasm.

-- Checking for YASM

-- Found as /usr/bin/yasm

Hi Christian,

do you mean the Dockerfiles for containerized build and create*FromSource*.bash convenience scripts? FFmpeg build uses nasm on my system (as I have both). The check in avidemux_core/cmake/admFFmpegBuild_helpers.cmake:329 ensures that we don't try to proceed with the build if FFmpeg configure has failed to find any assembler at all. Avidemux asking for yasm for its own assembly doesn't interfere with FFmpeg build system.

I'll have a look regarding devpod / Docker scripts, thanks.

Hi,

May be you didn't notice, but now ffmpeg 9.x use nasm instead of yasm.

Not really important for Debian packaging though.

Could you fix that ?


Thanks in advance,
Christian

Hey,
Ich habe eine IMac mit M1 und Goldengate System

Do you intent to update the included ffmpeg to a newer version (latest is 9.0.1) ?

several CVE issues have been fixed since 7.0.2

Thanks for the ffmpeg update to 9.0.1

Hey,

I compiled avidemux 2.8 for Arm64 and uploaded the installer DMG to Google drive:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1m9dmQjbi0eBIDhuUPwgobt-mZHu3Pcb5?usp=sharing

I gave it a small test run and it works

Thank you for the info, much appreciated.

Quote from: Reikom-br on September 04, 2026, 02:59:56 PMRegarding the options in `nightly/win64/`, should I just grab the latest executable—the one from "Aug 6 2026 7:51 PM"?

Yes, that one, either installer- or ZIP-packaged. I hope that there will be new builds soon (within 1-2 weeks timeframe).

Please make sure to install / extract into an empty directory and never run multiple Avidemux instances concurrently (not just different versions, really instances).
