Yes, I tried, but that didn't helped.

Do you have multiple copies of libx264 on your system?

Try the LD_LIBRARY_PATH hack w/ the rendering script you generated earlier. Place the export line in the script. The start-kdenlive script modifies LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Using the render script will give you a more isolated test environment than kdenlive and the start-kdenlive script.

Otherwise...I'm out of ideas for you...sorry. Seems like a config issue though.

Maybe not all is lost just yet...

I searched for "Undefined constant or missing '(' in 'dct8x8'" and got some useful hits. Among others was this one:

What version of ffmpeg answers when you type 'ffmpeg -version'. Post the entire output.
Next, verify where ffmpeg is running by typing 'which ffmpeg'. Also post the output of 'echo $PATH'.
Your render script should be running the ffmpeg in /home/r/kdenlive/2050416/bin

Here is ffmpeg output:

By that link which you gave it is written at 2013-03-21 that "fixed with latest patch of mlt", but I used compilation script just yesterday.

Well that idea didn't pan out.

Where does KdenLive think it's running FFMpeg from? You can see by going to Settings-->Config-Kdenlive and clicking on the Environment icon.

Just to be certain, modify your render script w/

export $PATH=/home/r/kdenlive/20140420/bin:$PATH

before the $RENDER $PARAMETERS line and give it one more try...

Everything is ok in "environment"
When I tried export $PATH=/home/r/kdenlive/20140422/bin:$PATH (22 is just because I compiled last time yesterday)
and run the script it waits for something and that's it.

So KdenLive thinks FFMpeg is in /home/r/kdenlive/20140422/bin ?

At least it did something different.

Can you try running the script from the command line / Konsole in order to see if it prints out anything useful?

Well, of course kdenlive thinks that ffmpeg is /home/r/kdenlive/20140422/bin(I rebuilded it yesterday), because ffmpeg is there if your are using the building script for kdenlive which is from here. It is installation in home directory. So, seems like you haven't used that script, but something different.

Here is output using modifed rendering script as you said:

The following line replacement should be used instead:

Yes, of course, I changed the number before(22) and added "" as you say but it still gives an error:

Is this a 32 bit of 64 bit system? If it is 64 bit, then you probably want to use this LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable instead:

Code: Select all

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/r/kdenlive/20140416/lib64/

Yes, it is 64bit sysstem but threre is no lib64 directory after compiling using that script:

I use that build script too. I'm on Ubu 12.04 LTS.

I'm out of ideas at the moment. Sorry I could help you find the answer. Maybe the MLT group can help.
