Encode video using ffmpeg and vp8 codec on Native Client

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

I'm trying to develop a video encoder using Native Client. I want the output file to be .webm and I'm using ffmpeg example "muxing.c".

When I run the example I get the error message: Could not find encoder for 'vp8'

The error comes from here:

*codec = avcodec_find_encoder(codec_id);
if (!(*codec)) {
    fprintf(stderr, "Could not find encoder for '%s'\n",
            avcodec_get_name(codec_id));
}

Where codec_id value is AV_CODEC_ID_VP8

When I put the output file to be .mp4 it works.

Can someone help me. Do I need to enable vp8 encoder for ffmpeg naclport? What should I do?

Thanks!!
