all_clients-helix-20041208-macos-gcc3-pb.tar.gz
hxplay-1.1.0.603-linux-2.2-libc6-gcc32-powerpc.tar.bz2

i cant find the file which is shown in ffmpegx. what is the right one...

The Helix site changed their files. I'm preparing a new release with the right links. In the meantime, download this file:

http://forms.helixcommunity.org/helix/builds/index.html?filename=20041208/all_clients-...gcc3-pb.tar.gz

Then after decompression, rename the folder as client-1.1.5-DevRel_macos-gcc3-pb_all_clients

/User/..../all_clients-helix-....

real location not defiened. You must locate ...

i can wait for the next update of ffmepgx or can you email me the old one to tom_at_ideaweb_dot_de?

thx a lot tom

[major]

You didn't rename the folder as "client-1.1.5-DevRel_macos-gcc3-pb_all_clients".

[gl0tzk0wski]

thx a lot tom

ffmpegX 0.0.9r fixing the reallib issue is forthcoming.

ffmpegX 0.0.9r fixing the reallib issue is forthcoming.

i downloaded the file you linked to and renamed per instructions and it doesn't work. is there a workaround? what does this effect? when 9r comes out, what's the best way to upgrade? tia.

It only affects encoding of a RealVideo movie, otherwise you can keep it like it is and wait 1 day for version 0.0.9r.

i've got 0.0.9r now, and i am still having this problem with the reallibs--

the installer pretends to recognize the link i made to the folder

client-1.1.5-DevRel_macos-gcc3-pb_all_clients

but if i click on "install binaries" again in ffmpegX then it still shows up as not having been installed.

i tried trashing and reinstalling ffmpegX several times and still the same problem. What am i doing wrong?

[major]

Download http://homepage.mac.com/major4/reallib.zip, unzip and put the folder in /Library/Application Support/ffmpegX

I will make reallibs an optional install in ffmpegX 0.0.9sn as the continuous change of builds from Helix make this process a little difficult.

i did that but still no go. The installer accepts the link as if it worked, but if i try to encode a real media file (which is unfortunately what i need to do and why i am suffering from all this trouble) it chimes very happily as if it worked, but gives me a 0 kb empty file. the encoding report reads as:

Number of stream maps must match number of output streams

so obviously it hasn't done anything, and if i check the reallibs in the installer again, it shows up again in red as missing. i already tried deleting and reinstalling ffmpegX, but the problem persists. what's the next thing to try?

You must use the mencoder engine for Real conversions.

I can't even download the helix or the realib, both download sites, even the one you posted major aren't working. An updated link please?

The website has an updated link.
