Hi there <BR>
<BR>
Sorry My emails were blocked by Telecom, you were all SPAMs<BR>
<BR>
So ...<BR>
I did flag the gcc compiler by :<BR>
CFLAGS="-03 -fPIC"<BR>
Bingo, the all lot worked. It is a recurrent problem with X64 and gcc.<BR>
I still have to modify a line :<BR>
<BR>
if test "x$enable_mmx" = "xno"; then<BR>
ff_conf_args="$ff_conf_args --disable-mmx"<BR>
<BR>
Can I add stuff after --disable-mmx ? like --disable--mmx --enable-altivec<BR>
<BR>
ff_conf_args="$ff_conf_args --disable-mmx --enable-altivec"<BR>
or is it against the rules ?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks again for your time<BR>
Cheers<BR>
E<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
