The libraries that make up ffmpeg include libavcodec, libavformat etc. Hence the list - it's for users of the libraries, not the ffmpeg binary. To confuse matters, there was a fork, and they called that project LibAV.</div><div><br></div><div>So - you're using libavformat, libavcodec etc. But - are you using source code obtained from the ffmpeg project, or the libav project?

I feel your pain. Sadly, a certain amount of chaff comes with using FOSS systems (nothing personal to the chaff providers on this thread). Lots of personalities. The upside outweighs the cost in humility that is required. </div><div><br></div><div>Anyway... LibAV, I have no idea. FFmpeg, yes, you can compile and use it from C++ with very little problems - just the packaging around the headers so the compiler knows they are C, not C++. </div><div><br></div><div><div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; "></div><blockquote type="cite"><div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; ">When I compile demuxing.c with g++ it gives me the same errors as when I add libav calls to my C++ app and then try to compile that with g++.
