Re: [h323plus] OpenMCU not using video codecs
Sorry
It should be avcore-dev
So it should look like
sudo apt-get install libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavcore-dev
Thanks

Simon,
In the H.263 instructions, you list libavcodec-dev twice. Is that correct? or is there a 3rd dependency?

No dependencies. Make sure your copy the plugin to the same directory (or subDir) as the executable or set the PTLIBPLUGINDIR environmental variable to point to where the *plugin.so resides.

Dependency FFMPEG
for debian based systems

Rerun ./configure and the codecs should then be available. Do a Make and the the *plugin.so should be in the h323plus/plugins directory. Copy them from there.
H.264 also has a *helper.so file which needs to be copied as well. This *MUST* be in the same directory as the executable. It does not understand the PTLIBPLUGINDIR environmental variable.
You should then be good to go.
To debug the codecs set the environmental variable PTLIB_TRACE_CODECS=4
You should see in the console the initial tests to check that all the dependencies are found at startup.

Hi everyone,
I'm having a lot of trouble setting up an OpenMCU server on either FreeBSD/Ubuntu (Ubuntu preferred).
On FreeBSD, after all the packages are installed I am seemingly limited to H.261 - The endpoints are capable of H.263/264, however I cannot get OpenMCU to use this codec.
On Ubuntu (my preferred system) OpenMCU preferences report the use of the G711 audio codecs, but do not even use the H.261 video codecs. There is no video output to any of the endpoints.
I think it might have to do with the codec installation on Ubuntu - How can I check if these are installed properly?
When I try to configure the h323plus install, I get the following:

Hi Simon,
I've installed libavcodec-dev and libavformat-dev, but I can't seem to find libavcore-dev for Ubuntu Oneiric... The closest I could find was http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian-multimedia/pool/main/f/ffmpeg-dmo/libavcore-..., would that work?

Linux is a moving target.
Try it without libavcore. The codec will build. Enable codec tracing and check if the codecs load properly.
I know libavcore is definitely required on some platforms and versions of FFMPEG.
