If you have problems installing transcode with ImageMagick

22 Mar 2008

      The recent ImageMagick upgrade includes renaming the dynamic library, 
with the result transcode doesn't find it 
(http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213712).

Until upstream fixes this, the workaround is to create a symbolic link 
(an alias):

    cd /opt/local/lib
    ln -s libMagickCore.1.dylib libMagick.dylib

Transcode will successfully compile once this is done.

Until the portfile is updated, you may need to substitute the one below.

Cheers,
Dave

Hi Stephen,
You do need an updated version of the transcode portfile for leopard;
it's ready and making its way into the repository.
The transcode portfile is appended.

description Video and audio processing tools
long_description    transcode is a suite of tools, all of which are \
            command line utilities, for transcoding various \
            video, audio, and container formats, running on a \
            platform that supports shared libraries and threads.\
            \
            Decoding and encoding is done by modules that are \
            responsible for feeding transcode with raw video/ \
            audio streams (import modules) and encoding the frames \
            (export modules). \
            \
            It includes a variety of video and audio filters, \
            including (but not limited to) video de-interlacing, \
            audio resampling, framerate conversion, different \
            resizing algorithms, smoothing, sharpening, denoisifying, \
            and cutting.

Hi!
I tried installing transcode on Leopard and it did not complete  
because of problems with some libraries. Can anyone please help? The  
error message is similar to the following (this is a second try at  
installing) -
--->  Staging ffmpeg into destroot
<snip>
make: *** [install-libs] Error 2
Warning: the following items did not execute (for ffmpeg):  
org.macports.activate org.macports.destroot org.macports.install
Error: The following dependencies failed to build: ffmpeg lame  
libdvdread libdvdcss libmpeg2 libsdl
Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
Regards.
Stephen
