i have an AVI file, i have decoded it into Raw form first, now

  • 0

i have an AVI file, i have decoded it into Raw form first, now i want to encode it in .h264 format. I am using libavcodec.dll and libavformat.dll.
The point is when i try to open the codec from avcodec_open(AVCodecContext,AVCodec)
It doesnot open. Am i missing some parameters that i need to specify for execution of this method for the lib x264?
Any help will be deeply appreciated.
Thanks

    There are two common ways to encode AVI file to H.264 using x264:

    1, Compile and install ffmpeg, with --enable-shared, then compile and install x264. You’ll see lavf: yes when configuring. Then do the converting using x264 cli or something else(such as DirectX264).

    2, Compile and install x264, with --enable-shared, then compile and install ffmpeg with --enable-libx264. Then you will be able to convert using ffmpeg cli or something else(such as WinFF).

    And btw .h264 is not a sufficient suffix, please use “.mkv”, “.mp4” or something instead.
