Hi Doug,<br><br>Aren't there packages (VideoProducerServiceH264 etc.) available for vic on the mac? Really I don't see why the GPL vic isn't bundled with AG by default already, but besides that, end users shouldn't have to compile it themselves either.<br>

</div>The default 3 clause BSD license VIC doesn't have the patent encumbered stuff enabled. The GPL VIC does and can be built on Leopard to Lion with the following on the command-line, you'll also need to install the yasm assembler which is available from ( <a href="http://yasm.tortall.net/Download.html" target="_blank">http://yasm.tortall.net/Download.html</a> ) :<br>
<br>
svn co <a href="https://mediatools.cs.ucl.ac.uk/repos/mmedia/common/trunk" target="_blank">https://mediatools.cs.ucl.ac.uk/repos/mmedia/common/trunk</a> common<br>
svn co <a href="https://mediatools.cs.ucl.ac.uk/repos/mmedia/vic/branches/mpeg4" target="_blank">https://mediatools.cs.ucl.ac.uk/repos/mmedia/vic/branches/mpeg4</a> vic-mpeg4 vic<br>
<br>
( cd common; ./configure ; make )<br>
cd vic<br>
./configure --enable-gpl<br>
make<br>
<br>
<br>
The --enable-gpl option downloads and builds x264 and ffmpeg required for H264 and mpeg-4 support.<br>
<br>
