system: debian6.0, squeeze stable

Need the ‘crop’ filter
Trying to follow the procedure in:

“ffmpeg with x264 and libavfilter on debian squeeze”

1. Uninstall blockers
sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg x264 libx264-dev

2. Install dependencies for debian’s ffmpeg package:
aptitude build-dep ffmpeg
sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion git-core checkinstall yasm texi2html libfaac-dev libfaad-dev libmp3lame-dev libopencore-amrnb-dev libopencore-amrwb-dev libsdl1.2-dev libx11-dev libxfixes-dev libxvidcore4-dev zlib1g-dev

3. Edit sources.list:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Add in these lines for the debian-multimedia repository:
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main non-free
deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org squeeze main non-free

4. Add the repository key:
sudo apt-get install debian-archive-keyring

Then update:
sudo apt-get update

5. Install ffmpeg’s format support:
sudo apt-get install libmp3lame-dev libxvidcore4-dev libfaad-dev libfaac-dev liba52-0.7.4-dev

6. Install subversion and git to grab sources for ffmpeg and x264:
sudo apt-get install subversion git

7. Check out the “summer of code” branch of ffmpeg
svn co svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/soc
cd soc/libavfilter/
./checkout.sh
cd ffmpeg/
./configure –enable-libmp3lame –enable-libtheora –enable-libx264 –enable-libgsm –enable-postproc –enable-libxvid –enable-pthreads –enable-libvorbis –enable-gpl –enable-x11grab –enable-nonfree –enable-filter=movie –enable-avfilter –enable-libfaac

At this point, the configure script will complain “ERROR: libx264 not found” – install x264:
cd ../../..
git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git
cd x264
./configure
make
sudo checkinstall –fstrans=no –install=yes –pkgname=x264 –pkgversion “1:0.svn`date +%Y%m%d`-0.0squeeze1″ –default

**********************************************************************

Done. The new package has been installed and saved to

/home/user1/x264/x264_0.svn20110405-0.0squeeze1-1_i386.deb

You can remove it from your system anytime using:

dpkg -r x264

**********************************************************************

8. Back to ffmpeg:
cd ../soc/libavfilter/ffmpeg/
./configure –enable-libmp3lame –enable-libtheora –enable-libx264 –enable-libgsm –enable-postproc –enable-libxvid –enable-pthreads –enable-libvorbis –enable-gpl –enable-x11grab –enable-nonfree –enable-filter=movie –enable-avfilter –enable-libfaac
sudo make
sudo checkinstall –pkgname=ffmpeg –pkgversion “4:0.7+svn`date +%Y%m%d`” –backup=no –default

8. Back to ffmpeg:
cd ../soc/libavfilter/ffmpeg/

./configure –enable-libmp3lame –enable-libtheora –enable-libx264 –enable-libgsm –enable-postproc –enable-libxvid –enable-pthreads –enable-libvorbis –enable-gpl –enable-x11grab –enable-nonfree –enable-filter=movie –enable-avfilter –enable-libfaac
sudo make
