this is what your ffmpeg is missing:
--enable-libmp3lame
flv uses mp3 audio.

I will try it and post the result tomorrow ;)
thx for the fast reply!
The new version of Ffmpeg doesn't have many of these argument!
e.g. --enable-libogg ,,--enable-pp .
Can you upload somewhere your source of ffmpeg so i can download it ? (if you have it )
thank you again.

hey,
I got the same error, but I tried to transcode works fine. I buidl ffmpeg (svn source) on my on and tried to use debian packages from http://debian-multimedia.org/. I Alsways got this message in the admin menu and it says "Audio support not available, video will be silent." on the transcode page.
I mean, I am happy that everything works, but I would like to have this future without failure message (if possible ;))
@SUBERIP: have you tried to transcode a video? maybe it works too???
Posts: 23
You are lucky
Have you updated the site at Gallery 2.2.6? [ I am trying to see if this is the problem :*( ]
All the videos with audio compress them to a file with size: 1589
maybe a other type is needed a ffmpeg
seba84 can you pls post your configuration ?
thank you for the info although

@suberip: witch configuration do you mean? the ffmpeg. See my quoted text. I got the svn snapshot and build it with the posted configuration command.
I used the transcode script on a test install of version 2.3 RC1.
Right now i got an other problem: Yesterday I want to update a none productive (thank god) install with around 8000 items to 2.3 RC1 to use the transcode script but several errors occur. I can't even access the admin interface of that version. So this is prior for the moment.
all this is just hobby and at the moment i'm out of time for hobbies.

Oh my wrong i though that was my configuration :P
i will try yours right now
Now can encode movies with out sound correct! But when the movie has sound the file is still corupted :S
still trying ;)

just a status info:
I tried several builds with different configurations but with the same results. I always get the messages "Missing required audio codec, encoded videos will not contain sound."
But most time they have sound. In other cases they are broken. The videos are all from the same digital ixus 60.
After that I tried to install the binary version from suprsidrs web side witch works fine with all videos, shows the "missing requierd audio codec..." message and has no sound.
i have no more ideas right now. Next week (Oktoberfest comes first ;)) i will try own builds of lame and libmp3lame or older revisions of ffmpeg.

It is 5 in the mornig and i found this site while trying to fix it!
http://bogdan.org.ua/2007/06/28/compiled-linux-ffmpeg-binary-for-gallery2-download.html
and the bin files works !! the ffmpeg modules seems to pass but i think miss some de-codecs now :P.
At transcode page still says Audio support not available, video will be silent.
The sound type is PCM !

A restart of module FFMPEG and all are fine!!
I hope these posts will help the other with the same problem
than k you all for the help
i done it :D

Any video with surround sound 5.1 or greater is not yet supported by ffmpeg either. So that could also be your error.

No, all are kk now.
I dont know why i couldnt install ffmpeg and make it work but the bin that i download works fine

grrrr.... I tried again a view configurations during my brake. I think they changed something in the svn. In the newes version there should be an error witch was a prolme to me: got that on a transcode during shell (https://roundup.mplayerhq.hu/roundup/ffmpeg/issue641)
with r12787:
gallery: no error occurs on the ffmpeg test page but on transcode page (but transcode did not work)
on shell: everything works fine
with r10787
gallery: no error occurs on the ffmpeg test page but on transcode page (but transcode did not work)
on shell: everything works fine
suprsidr: can you please tel me with revision you are using and maybe give me your transcode modul?! would be nice. I send you an msg with an email addy.

Download the modules for Transcode && Ffmpeg and install them.
from site:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1758576&group_id=7130&atid=307130
install the ffmpeg: " apt-get isntall ffmpeg "
then go to :
[url] http://bogdan.org.ua/2007/06/28/compiled-linux-ffmpeg-binary-for-gallery2-download.html[/url]
and copy paste the bin file to "/usr/bin/" and the libs at the library path for your system!
restart module ffmpeg.
This is my steps.

uhh... thank you. I should read what you wrote!
this is working here too... maybe all my other revision in the post above would have done that too.?! I mean I never deactivate the ffmpeg module. I guess that was my fault because there was no error in the ffmpeg module test, just on transcode side.
@suprsidr just ignore my msg.

I guess I should have asked if you had "Bumped" your modules ;)

I just spent a couple of hours with transcode and ffmpeg.
I added a video bitrate selector, fixed the other options to actually work. Fixed the "Missing audio..... " error.
AND finished transcode on upload. ;)
Lemme know if you're interested in the update.

:O
we are dieing for this upddate!!!
please
can you pls put and default values so at upload can encode with that values?
the update can be done from admin control at plugin list or manually?
Posts: 8339
Uploaded them here.
I'll look into adding some admin options for setting upload defaults.
I'm not really crazy about the onUpload feature. A simple 6mb movie trailer took a good bit of time to upload and transcode.
Although I added a progressBar to ItemAddfromBrowser.tpl to indicate it was still working at it. Most people would have hit the back button which could produce broken or missing object errors in G2.
Added the progressBar to Transcode.tpl too ;)
I'll include the progressBar mod here.
add it to gallery2/modules/core/templates/local

sorry, didn't look on it last night. I first had to find out how to uninstall a corrupt hidden module by hand
(newest version of the hidden module - no deinstall or delete over the admin menu). I will try to find some time this weekend...

wow. This one appears to be working just fine. Nice work. I did have a couple that werent getting transcoded. All i did was edited the video > Transcode Tab > Uncheck Enable transcoding, save, then Check Enable transcoding.
This is just sweet! Great job.

I actually have many updates, but I need to cleanup some code before I package it up for trial.

suprsidr,
Will there be an option to adjust the quality of the encoded movies?
Thanks
Matthew.
Posts: 8339
Ok, new version up.
Adds new options in admin -> transcode
Adds new transcode options in add item from web browser.
Adds transcode to different mimetypes.
Adds output quality/height/width/audio channels/audio samplerate........
I'd uninstall previous versions of transcode & ffmpeg.
You will have to re-install ffmpeg before transcode and probably bump the thumbnail module too(deactivate/re-activate) after ffmpeg.

Ok, kinda fixed it... the problem lies with a particular mime(s) having more then 1 extension associated.
flv will definately work, but I have to explore a better way of achieving the default extension for said mime.
Also removed some traces from ffmpeg - so uninstall/re-install again... sorry.

Nice work
seems to work for me 
no bug until now!
I just started a maintenance "build all thumbnail" i hope will work with the videos too ;)
Posts: 8339
So there is a bug?
It should, no changes there. - remember video thumbs take a sec as the offset needs to be reached.
Works for me.
