Comment (by pulkomandy):
Well, ffmpeg actually is built with support for this, so making it
available through the media kit is not going to make the legal side any
better or worse. It's just a matter of adding the format to the list
(which is as easy as what I did for flac in http://cgit.haiku-
os.org/haiku/commit/?id=hrev48039).
An ffmpeg 2 based add-on for gcc4 versions is also possible. There is
already a recipe for ffmpeg 2.x but I'm not sure if it compiles currently.
But it should be possible to port the changes from our previous ffmpeg
ports. Then, the media plugin on Haiku side would need to be modified to
use the new APIs from ffmpeg 2.x (it would probably beecome an "ffmpeg2"
plugin and live next to the existing one).
Finally, another thing you can test:
{{{
pkgman install ffmpeg_x86
ffmpeg-x86 -i 01breakin_benjamin__so_cold.mp3 -acodec vorbis
01breakin_benjamin__so_cold.ogg
}}}
If that works, we will be sure our problem is compiling ffmpeg with gcc2.
If the -x86 (gcc4) version of ffmpeg also crashes, the problem is
elsewhere.
If the problem is in ffmpeg, I'll see if I can get vorbis working using
libvorbis, so we have at least one lossy encoder. And we can enable MP2 in
ffmpeg too, if that one works.
