VIM3 Ubuntu FFMPEG installation with aml (hardware decode)

VIM3

Which Khadas SBC do you use?

I am using VIM3 board with “VIM3_Ubuntu-gnome-focal_Linux-4.9_arm64_EMMC_V1.0.9-211217” installed from official khadas docs page.

From this thread: “Is hardware video decoding supported in Linux?” Ubuntu 4.9 should have hardware support.

Please describe your issue below:

I am trying to install FFMPEG with aml to enable hardware decode from this git: “Add AML HW decoders · LongChair/FFmpeg@90735fc · GitHub” but amcodec library was not found.

Has anyone successfully build FFMPEG with this option or have faced similar issue?

@numbqq, @Frank

Thanks.
