I used tutorial to compile it from source but it never worked for me.
I am facing error on following points

Download x264 codec and compile it:

git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git x264

cd x264

./configure –enable-static

make && make install

error log:

 cd x264

     ./configure –enable-static

    Unknown option –enable-static, ignored

    Found no assembler

    Minimum version is yasm-1.2.0

    If you really want to compile without asm, configure with --disable-asm.

      make && make install

    Makefile:3: config.mak: No such file or directory

    ./configure

    Found no assembler

    Minimum version is yasm-1.2.0

    If you really want to compile without asm, configure with --disable-asm.

    make: *** [config.mak] Error 1

and

cd libav

./configure --enable-gpl --enable-nonfree

make && make install

error log:

 cd libav

./configure --enable-gpl --enable-nonfree

Unable to create and execute files in /tmp.  Set the TMPDIR environment

variable to another directory and make sure that it is not mounted noexec.

Sanity test failed.



If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest

version from Git.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the

libav-tools@libav.org mailing list or IRC #libav on irc.freenode.net.

Include the log file "config.log" produced by configure as this will help

solving the problem.

  make && make install

Makefile:1: config.mak: No such file or directory

I installed using these but still i am facing issues

wget https://www.libav.org/releases/libav-10.5.tar.gz

tar xf libav-10.5.tar.gz

TMPDIR=/home/sociaow2/tmp/avco/libav-10.5 ./configure

make && make install

cd

All libs installed now when i enter that command

 avconv -i state.mp4  -r 20 -s 480x352 -b 600k  -vcodec libx264 out_state.mp4

Unknown encoder 'libx264'
on command

  avconv -i state.mp4  -r 20 -s 480x352 -b 600k  -vcodec libx264 out_state.mp4

Unknown encoder 'libmp3lame'
on command

 avconv -i state.mp4  -r 20 -s 480x352 -b 600k  -vcodec libx264 out_state.mp4

I experienced similar issue when I tried to setup ffmpeg on my vps at rosehosting. The rosehosting support fixed the issue and explained to me that I needed higher yasm version to compile the latest x264 version. They used the following steps to install yasm on my vps:

git clone git://github.com/yasm/yasm.git

cd yasm

./autogen.sh

./configure

make

make install

as for the second error, I also experienced this issue as my /tmp was mounted with noexec attribute, so to fix this I needed to set TMPDIR to some convenient directory, for example:

export TMPDIR=~/mytmp

mkdir -p $TMPDIR

once the compilation is completed, you can remove and unset it using

rm -rf $TMPDIR

unset $TMPDIR

You are probably missing --enable-libx264 from your configure line and your server is configured disabling executing in /tmp I suggest you to do something like


mkdir ~/tmp
export TMPDIR=~/tmp
./configure --enable-gnu --enable-libx264


(further info here)

Installing yasm is required by x264 as stated above.

Make sure you have /usr/local/bin in your PATH since you are installing yasm, x264 and libav there.

Install dependencies :

yum install libvorbis  yasm freetype zlib bzip2 faac lame speex libvpx libogg  libtheora  x264 XviD openjpeg15 opencore-amr

Download the tarball from here and install it:

wget https://www.libav.org/releases/libav-10.5.tar.gz

tar xvf libav-10.5.tar.gz

cd libav-10.5

/configure --extra-cflags=-I/opt/local/include --extra-ldflags=-L/opt/local/lib --enable-gpl --enable-version3  --enable-libvpx

make

make install
