sudo apt-get install nvidia-cuda-toolkit libnvidia-encode-390

Search your system for: nvEncodeAPI.h.

When found, copy  nvEncodeAPI.h as root  into /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu

when building from git, terminal should show:

Checkout the ffmpeg4x branch, which contains the current code (the master branch is far behind at the moment):
cd ~/avidemux2 && git checkout ffmpeg4x
if you're coming from master:
git pull
Check if these dependencies are there and uptodate:
sudo apt-get install libass-dev liba52-0.7.4-dev libmad0-dev libmp4v2-dev

-----------------------------------
If you have recent NVIDIA graphics card
You would need to clone nv-codec-headers for that:
cd ~ && git clone https://github.com/FFmpeg/nv-codec-headers
if NVIDIA driver version is => 390
cd ~/nv-codec-headers
git checkout sdk/8.1
make
sudo make install


-----------------------------------
proceed as before.

Thanks to the developers

git master is now more current than ffmpeg4x branch.
But master, in recent update 6 days ago (commit 3a992b2), appears to have broken avidemux/qt4/i18n/ directory contents (directory is empty) meaning cannot compile.

CMake Error at i18n/CMakeLists.txt:2 (INCLUDE):
  INCLUDE could not find load file:

    Ts


CMake Error at i18n/CMakeLists.txt:3 (COMPILE_TS_FILES):
  Unknown CMake command "COMPILE_TS_FILES".

You must do

git submodule update --init --recursive

once, then use

git pull --recurse

to include eventual changes in the i18n repo, where translations now reside.

I compiled Avidemux following steps in this thread but it the version is 2.7.3.
Is there a git with newer version? Nightly builds are 2.7.5.

eumagga0x2a

You've probably checked out the old ffmpeg4x branch. It was used in the fall of 2018 to implement necessary changes for a major ffmpeg update. You need to checkout the master branch (in other words, you should not checkout ffmpeg4x).

git checkout master

Thank you very much for such a quick and helpful reply - it works :-)
