configure: error: *** FFMPEG includes directory
/usr/include/ffmpeg/ does not exist.

Could you please tell me if you had to install some extra
packages from the repositories?

fyi, on debian/lenny with ffmpeg etc pacakges from the debian-
multimedia (non-free) repo I needed to have

--with-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-includes="/usr/include/ffmpeg /usr/include/ffmpeg/libavcodec /usr/include/ffmpeg/libavformat /usr/include/ffmpeg/libswscale"

and install the libavcodec-dev, libavformat-dev, and libswscale-dev pacakges.

looking in config.log and using 'apt-file search filename.h'
got me there.

OK, I don't know why the packages are in different places than in the
past. Here is what *finally* worked for me:

./configure \

--with-ffmpeg=yes
--with-ffmpeg-includes="/usr/include/mythtv/ffmpeg/ /usr/include/libavcodec /usr/include/libavformat /usr/include/libswscale"

Thanks, Nikos
