Arch Linux

Description:

The --libvidstab switch in ./configure of ffmpeg-full fails because vid.stab is not installed.
Currently there is no package in Arch or AUR that installs vid.stab.

vid.stab homepage is: http://public.hronopik.de/vid.stab/features.php?lang=en

I created a rudimentary PKBUILD for vid.stab, it's attached.
( I'm not terribly good at this, it's my first try - I'm new to Arch, formerly a Sorcerer Linux user)

Anyways, once vid.stab is installed, then the --enable-libvidstab configure flag works.

Once support for this library is compiled in ffmpeg, mlt-git and Shotcut-git can do better video stabilization.
I'm chatting to the developer about how the actually enable the vid.stab in shotcut.

The main reason I want this to work is so that I can add this feature to kdenlive, but support for it has to be added into the distro first.

I would like someone to co-maintain this vid.stab package with me in the AUR, mainly because I have long stretches in time where I don't touch a computer, and also to give me some pointers on Arch etiquette wile I am getting up to speed.

Contact me directly at evorster@gmail.com, if you want.
