How would I checkout a particular version from SVN

I needed this, since XVID and JPEG was not getting enabled in Clipshare. Infact they were not getting linked in the mencoder or mplayer. And when checked the FOSS.IN award winning script ffmpeginstaller by Master Sherin (who is an expert in kungfoo), I saw that is uses ffmpeg-SVN-r14473.tar.gz. So decided to use that.

But ffmpeg-SVN-r14473.tar.gz was no were available. And this is how I got it.

mkdir /root/ssages/ffmpeg-SVN
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk/ ffmpeg -r14473

And that fetched me the 14473 version of ffmpeg.

While installing, libx264 with mp4 support, we hit this error.

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgpac_static
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libx264.so.60] Error 1

To solve it,

Install libgpac (rpm or from source)
ranlib /usr/lib/libgpac_static.a
ldconfig -v
