Everything is working for me ! About ffmpeg, I'm relying on kirillshkrogalev's "ffmpeg-next" PPA (my PPA is dependant of his, it's written in "Technical details")

The official PPA has been updated to use the ffmpeg-next PPA from kirillshkrogalev, and should now work on both 14.04 and 14.10. The version number might not be correct in the title bar yet but it should work.

Good news ! :)
I've checked the new package & found a possible improvement: to enable JACK2 initial support, you could add "libjack-jackd2-dev" to debian/control Bulid-Depends...up to you to see ! ;)

Yeah, to be honest I just copied your depends to get it working with ffmpeg-next. Thanks for that!

I'll add jack and rebuild

You're welcome ! ;)

I'll keep my PPA active, it could always be useful (and I'll do some tests to train myself on PPA compilation)

An improvement about the version number (if it's not already done): in debian/rules, uncomment the last instructions and modify it to look like this (example for 0.8.3)

Code: 
# main packaging script based on dh7 syntax
%:
    dh $@

# debmake generated override targets
# This is example for Cmake (See http://bugs.debian.org/641051 )
override_dh_auto_configure:
    dh_auto_configure -- \
    -DOBS_VERSION_OVERRIDE="0.8.3"

(tested & guaranteed !)

So, I've got 0.6.4-65 running, stream once a week or so. Had downloaded the latest 0.8.3 and was going to try to make a portable install (don't want to break what's working). Running into the ffmpeg location/naming (as it seems) issue trying to compile. I am already using the kirillshkrogalev ffmpeg-next (perhaps that's the problem compiling?).
I'm pretty noobish to a lot of this. Is it worth it to keep trying? As I said, don't want to break what's working without some worthwhile improvement as it's pretty much "okay" now.

Well...what's your Linux OS ? If it's Ubuntu or one of its derivatives, you can use kirillshkrogalev/ffmpeg-next & obsproject/obs-studio to have an up-to-date OBS (even if it's still 0.8.2 on PPA right now), that's easier than to compile it yourself.

If you don't want to use it, then what does your terminal says when you're trying to compile ?

Hello. Mint 17, so yes, I could do the PPA for 0.8.2 I suppose. Not sure why 0.6 didn't come up for update on "check for updates". Already using ffmpeg-next. Just trying to get a sense of what is improved between 0.6 and 0.8 I guess.

there's miles of difference between 0.6.4 and 0.8.x. i would upgrade if it were me.

Hi, I'm trying to get NDI going in OBS Studio on Linux Ubuntu 16.04.

I downloaded the OBS Studio NDI feature source code here: https://github.com/dalegaard/obs-studio.git and followed the compilation commands here at the Wiki. I'm getting the flowing out put:

[SOLVED - FFMPEG error]
I'm getting this error: Could NOT find FFmpeg (missing: FFMPEG_AVCODEC_LIBRARIES FFMPEG_AVCODEC_INCLUDE_DIRS avcodec avfilter avdevice avutil swscale avformat swresample

UPDATE: fixed by following the Wiki install guide (as mentioned in the OBS NDI readme) here: https://github.com/jp9000/obs-studi...ns#manually-compiling-on-debian-based-distros

[SOLVED - Boost error]]
Unable to find the Boost header files. Please set BOOST_ROOT to the root
directory containing Boost or BOOST_INCLUDEDIR to the directory containing
Boost's headers.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
plugins/obs-ndi/CMakeLists.txt:1 (find_package)

UPDATE: running: sudo apt update && sudo apt install ffmpeg libav-tools x264 x265 ...fixed the issue.


[ERROR - Framelink.hpp]

Now, running: make -j4 ...I get error output below...

I think what I have to do is install ndiflbridge from here: https://github.com/dalegaard/ndiflbridge But I get error output when compiling it:

mike@UbuntuLaptop:~/ndiflbridge$ ./build-linux.sh

Have I correctly set up the variable in the build-linux.sh file?:

-I /home/mike/NDI-SDK/include/ \
ndiflbridge.cpp /home/mike/NDI-SDK/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu-5.3/libndi.a

(I unzipped the NDI SDK to: /home/mike/NDI-SDK.)

My GCC version...
mike@UbuntuLaptop:~/ndiflbridge$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.4) 5.4.0 20160609

Any help will be much appreciated.

Mike
