VLC, VLC09: fails with x264 @20100224_0

Reported by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt) Owned by: mnick@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.8.2
Keywords: Cc: othiman@…
Port: VLC, VLC09

Description

Now that x264 has been updated to @20100224_0, VLC/VLC09 fails to decode DivX video, stating:

No suitable decoder module
VLC does not support the audio or video format "XVID". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.

Instead of "XVID" for some videos it says "DX50".

First, ffmpeg/ffmpeg-devel need to be updated to link with the new libx264. I revbumped ffmpeg to do this, but ffmpeg-devel has problems.

Then, VLC/VLC09 needs an update. On Tiger, VLC09 @0.9.10_2 using ffmpeg @0.5.1_1, for example, fails like this:

x264.c: In function 'Open':
x264.c:951: error: 'x264_param_t' has no member named 'b_bframe_pyramid'
x264.c:1306: warning: implicit declaration of function 'x264_nal_encode'

This is most likely a duplicate bug of either #24224 or #24225.

If this is a bug in x264, then yes. I had assumed x264 has simply evolved, and all software using x264 must now evolve with it. But I don't know that for sure.

Closing as works for me as x264 @20100603 works fine with VLC @1.0.6.
