How to compile libx264.dll for Avidemux?

Hi, everyone. Does anyone know how to compile libx264.dll for Avidemux?
-
My System
Windows XP Prof SP3
-
So here is what I did so far
  • Installed all the programs listed in that guide
    Step by step x264 compilation guide for complete newbies:
    -
  • I always tried to install the newest version of each program
    binutils-2.19-mingw32-rc1-bin.tar.gz
    gcc-part-core-4.3.0-20080502-2-mingw32-alpha-bin.tar.gz
    Git-1.6.0.2-preview20080923.exe
    MinGW-5.1.4.exe
    w32api-3.12-mingw32-dev.tar.gz
    yasm-0.7.2-win32.exe
    zlib-1.2.3.exe
    gpac-0.4.4-rc2.zip (I guess not necessary for Avidemux?)
    pthreads-w32-2-8-0-release.exe
    -
  • Get the newest x264 build with Git
    Code:
    git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git
    -
  • Open MSYS and start to configure the source
    Code:
    configure --prefix=/mingw --enable-pthread --enable-avis-input --enable-shared
    -
    Gives me the following result
    Code:
    ./version.sh: git: command not found
    Platform:   X86
    System:     MINGW
    asm:        yes
    avis input: yes
    mp4 output: no
    pthread:    yes
    debug:      no
    gprof:      no
    PIC:        no
    shared:     yes
    visualize:  no
    
    You can run 'make' or 'make fprofiled' now.

  • Then start to compile
    Code:
    make SONAME=libx264.dll
    Some warnings appear during compiling but nothing to worry about I guess…
    -
Everything’s finished and I have a brand new x264.exe (1,12 MB) and libx264.dll (803 KB).
-
Testing x264.exe
Code:
$ x264.exe --version
x264 0.65.x
built on Dec  2 2008, gcc: 4.3.0 20080305 (alpha-testing) mingw-20080502
-
Overwriting the existing libx264.dll in the Avidemux folder and try to encode a video in x264 gives me the following result:
Filter Init Failed
-
Looking forward for some advice.
