mythweb flash nuv ffmpeg segfault

[michael bishop <clever@…>]

my ffmpeg seems to segfault when converting the .nuv files from my frame grabber to flv using this small patch(which depends on mencoder) ive worked arround the problem it needs a fifo at /tmp/mythwebflash right now to work(forgoten too much perl to make it automaticaly) basicaly mencoder just writes raw video/pcm audio to the fifo and ffmpeg converts that to flv

I get the same segfault without the patch. But with the patch, it still doesn't work. In /tmp/ffmpeglog, I get: FFmpeg version SVN-r8876, Copyright (c) 2000-2007 Fabrice Bellard, et al.

ffmpeg (and many versions of mencoder) don't support nupplevideo. As I've said a dozen times before, this is a proof of concept feature. In the final version, the backend itself will be doing the transcoding, and it will work with nupplevideo files.
