Test 1, shared libs. This time I did not remove LIB from my environment. make distclean ./configure --enable-shared --disable-static --disable-strip --enable-memalign-hack make make install Everything went fine. Only 2 issues: strip not working (hence the disable). And if I try and start ffmpeg.exe in a DOS box:

Ok, so at least that problem is fixed.

C:\Program Files\FFmpeg>ffmpeg.exe -h This program cannot be run in DOS mode.

Sorry, but i don't really know what is going on here. Maybe the problem is that it tries to run it in `DOS mode'.

I will try the dlls in VisualStudio ASAP.

OK, reports on this topic welcome. Worked for me at least.

Test 2, static libs.

make distclean ./configure --enable-static --disable-shared --disable-strip --enable-memalign-hac make make install Compiles OK, but installs only ffmpeg.exe (not the libs, not the headers) and same problem running the ffmpeg.exe.

That is normal behaviour iirc, static libs are not installed by default. You should be able to install them with the installib target as the Wanderer pointed out already.
