subtitle filter missing in avidemux 2.7.0

[mnatiello]

Hi
I downloaded avidemux 2.7.0 from openSuSE Tumbleweed repository (linux 64).
The subtitle filter (and perhaps also others) is missing.
How can I solve this?
Thanks.

What does

Code Select Expand

rpm -qa | grep -i avidemux

report?

[mnatiello]

Hi
I get:
avidemux3-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64
avidemux3-qt5-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64
avidemux3-cli-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64

There is nothing else to upload in Tumbleweed other than lang- and debugpackages.

Now I would like to find out which files belong to the first two packages:

rpm -ql avidemux3-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64
rpm -ql avidemux3-qt5-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64

[mnatiello]

Thank you for helping me on this. It's two long lists. I attach the output.
It gave me an error when I simply copied the output, I send a tgz file instead

rpm -ql avidemux3-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64 > sv1
rpm -ql avidemux3-qt5-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64 > sv2
tar cvzf ans.tgz sv*

Thanks, libADM_vf_ssa.so is indeed missing. The best option would be to build Avidemux from the git master yourself, the 2.7.0 release is getting old in the tooth.

Code Select Expand

zypper si -d avidemux3

(unsure about "avidemux3" as package name, maybe it should be "avidemux3-2.7.0" or even the complete string "avidemux3-2.7.0-5.2.x86_64") will install build dependencies for SuSE. Please ensure that git, the SuSE equivalent for "freetype-devel" and "fontconfig-devel" are also installed. Clone then the avidemux2 git repository

Code Select Expand

git clone https://github.com/mean00/avidemux2.git

followed by

Code Select Expand

cd avidemux2
bash bootStrap.bash --prefix=/usr/local

If all goes well, you will find the Avidemux binaries below avidemux2/install/usr/local. Remove the SuSE Avidemux packages and copy the contents of "local" over /usr/local.

Hi.
It almost worked.
avidemux was compiled, I couldn't see any warnings or complains.
I copied the files to /usr/local but when running it complains about a library:
$ /usr/local/bin/avidemux3_qt5
/usr/local/bin/avidemux3_qt5: error while loading shared libraries: libADM_coreVideoCodec6.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The library is present in /usr/local/lib64/:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 83232 Apr 13 08:23 /usr/local/lib64/libADM_coreVideoCodec6.so*
Any suggestion?

[eumagga0x2a]

Is /usr/local/lib64 listed in a .conf file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ ? If yes, run ldconfig as root or via sudo.

[mnatiello]

I couldn't find /usr/local/lib64 anywhere in the .conf files
but I ran ldconfig anyway. It helped.
Now avidemux runs, and it appears to be my build
(dated today: 180413_f755326eaa44-fflibs 3.3.6)
It works better than before.
However, the subtitle filter is still empty.

[eumagga0x2a]

No libADM_vf_ssa.so in /url/local/lib64/ADM_plugins6/videoFilters ? Install the devel package for libass then and rebuild plugins by running

Code Select Expand

bash bootStrap.bash --prefix=/usr/local --rebuild --without-core --without-qt --without-cli --with-system-libass

in the avidemux2 directory. Inspect the cmake messages and the content of /tmp/logbuildPluginsCommon if libADM_vf_ssa.so still doesn't get built.

[eumagga0x2a]

If the libass plugin doesn't get built on SuSE (this is what it looks like now), please redirect the output of bootStrap.bash (stdout and stderr) to a file, compress it and attach to your reply for examination.

[mnatiello]

Hi
Thanks once again.
libass-devel is installed in my system.
No subtitles filter is present though, nor is libADM_vf_ssa.so built.
I can't find that string in logbuild nor in the output of the bash script.
The lib is not present  among avidemux libraries.
I attach the tarfile with the output and logbuild.
Thanks,
M. Natiello

I'll look into it once I get a chance.

[eumagga0x2a]

Should be fixed by [cmake] Fix fribidi version check, consistently use the correct library name, please execute

Code Select Expand

git pull

in the "avidemux2" folder, delete the "install" folder with compilation products and run

Code Select Expand

bash bootStrap.bash --prefix=/usr/local --with-system-libass

Then check whether libADM_vf_ssa.so has been generated. If yes, copy the content of "install/usr/local" over "/usr/local" like before. You will probably have to rerun ldconfig.

Hi

I am very sorry I didn't answer. I missed your last mail. I was wondering if you had forgotten...
I recompiled. The subtitles plugin is now present. I have not checked yet that it works correctly,
but why shouldn't it? The new subtitle file I have has not exactly the same time-stamps as the
original. I hope there still exists a way to "stretch it" so that it fits.
I attach the outcome of the compilation, just in case.
