Unable to find a suitable output format about ffmpeg.jl HOT 12 CLOSED

I'm on Manjaro.

  [c87230d0] FFMPEG v0.2.0 #master (https://github.com/JuliaIO/FFMPEG.jl)

from ffmpeg.jl.

Possible though unlikely - they both use FFMPEG.jl...

pinging @SimonDanisch

Should be fixed, with tests to catch in #7

Works for me on MacOS. Try rebuilding FFMPEG?

from ffmpeg.jl.

trying.

from ffmpeg.jl.

nope, still same error...

from ffmpeg.jl.

Odd...which OS?

from ffmpeg.jl.

Travis passes on Linux, but that doesn't mean much.

Maybe something weird with Makie and VideoIO?

from ffmpeg.jl.

OK, some headway. I tried using the built binary that FFMPEG.jl builds instead of the system's ffmpeg and I got this:

$ /home/yakir/.julia/packages/FFMPEG/aEyFi/deps/usr/bin/ffmpeg -y -ss 2 -i "/home/yakir/videos/Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 5/Brooklyn Nine-Nine S05E01.mkv" -vframes 1 tmp.jpg
/home/yakir/.julia/packages/FFMPEG/aEyFi/deps/usr/bin/ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavresample.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So I need this libavresample.so and I don't have it?

from ffmpeg.jl.

OK, I managed to fix it on my machine by manually installing (from AUR) libavresample. Not ideal but it works! I'll leave this open since I imagine you'd prefer solving this in some better way.

@giordano I saw you looking for build challenges..! Looks like libavresample is broken on Manjaro
