MP4Box successful on Ubuntu 8.10?

[zackiv31]

Anyone been able to get MP4Box to work on Ubuntu 8.10?

I keep getting the following segfault:

I tried to use the cvs version (of gpac) as well, this at least got me through install, but I get an unsupported video file:


me@me:~/Desktop$ MP4Box -aviraw video FILE.mkv -out testtttttttttt.avi
Unsupported avi file

During configure, it doesn't seem to link to teh Extra Libraries, they're all set to NO... is that my problem?

There's a bug report about this on launchpad. Apparently no one can get it to work under Ubuntu 8.10 even with compiling your own.

[zackiv31]

Well, I did know this is the case, but I am able to run it on my file without it segfaulting... its just telling me that it is unsupported.. so I think I'm a step in the right direction.. (unless what dependencies I'm missing is causing the segfault).

So how do I configure/make/make install with support for my codecs.. I know my sample file is avc1 and m4a audio

@ zackiv31

what are you trying to do? extract the video from the mkv file or from the avi file?

[zackiv31]

Extract from the mkv file and repackage into a PS3/Xbox 360 suitable file. (mp4)

[froggy1]

Extract from the mkv file and repackage into a PS3/Xbox 360 suitable file. (mp4)

Well, you cannot do this with the -aviraw option. This option is only for AVI files. If you want to extract the video from other containers like MKV, use the -raw option...

MP4Box -raw <track_id> file.mkv

where <track_id> is the number of the video or audio track - usually should be 1 for the first video track in an MKV

but if you deal with MKVs, why not use mkvextract ?

[zackiv31]

Hmmm... I'll check it out, never used it... I also have some *.ts files that I want to convert as well... what determines an "avi" The extension is just a container.. is *.ts file an avi or no?

I thought I've seen MP4Box -aviraw used for multiple file formats, but maybe I'm wrong..

[zackiv31]

@froggy1

Thanks for the tips... I followed the guide in some forum... unfortunately I got to the last step at MP4Box where it of course segfaults... but at least I was able to extract the files correctly using mkvextract.

I'll be looking through these forums to see if I can do these for my many different mp4 files/containers... I wish the internet would just pick one standard to make our lives easier...

No, AVI is a container in its own right, just like mkv, mp4, or ts

-aviraw is only used on avi's to extract tracks from them. You cannot use it on anything else
