Good question, I have no idea why ahze has put drm enabled by default. I will have to ask him. It's a bit hard for him to use computer at the moment with his broke finger with bracket from hand to arm. :-) I think that --enable-drm is Digital Radio Mondiale, not Digital Rights Management. I didn't check in there thought. > I think I saw a thread earlier this week about faac 1.26 being broken. > Try downgrading to 1.25. Why downgrade if you can get faad/faac works when you disable drm? ;-) Cheers, Mezz -- mezz7@cox.net - mezz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team - FreeBSD Multimedia Hat (ports, not src) http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome@FreeBSD.org http://wiki.freebsd.org/multimedia - multimedia@FreeBSD.org
