I am trying to convert various video file formats into .webm using ffmpeg v. 0.6.1 but am having a few troubles. It creates the file but is zero kb in size. I also get the following error:

Encoder (codec id 146) not found for output stream #0.0

I have tried loads of fixes but none seem to work. I have used --enable-libvorbis on ./confure and downloaded the latest version of libvpx and all the other dependencies listed here: http://www.videochat-scripts.com/install-ffmpeg-mplayer-flvtool2-yamdi-x264-theora-mp3lame-vorbis-ogg-faac/

Are there any patches I need to apply from webm? Or is this version of ffmpeg meant to support it?

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks,

Chris.

I've solved it. The error was caused by a dodgy install of ffmpeg. Reinstalled and it works fine.

You need --enable-libvpx on your ./configure, e.g.:

./configure --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-x11grab

I have solved it now but this may have worked instead of having to reinstall.Thank you! – Christopher Feb 6 '11 at 17:21
