Hi.
The guys from ffmpeg don't want to correct that problem (for me it is a
problem!)
You can replace
#include <inttypes.h">
with


typedef signed char  int8_t;
typedef signed short int16_t;
typedef signed int   int32_t;
typedef unsigned char  uint8_t;
typedef unsigned short uint16_t;
typedef unsigned int   uint32_t;
typedef signed long long   int64_t;
typedef unsigned long long uint64_t;


Good luck
