LAME 3.xx January 2001 Mark Taylor (http://www.mp3dev.org)
=======================================================================
Compile time options
=======================================================================
There are serveral targets which can be built from this
source code:
lame, lame.exe The command line encoder
mp3x A GTK based graphical MP3 frame analyzer. For debugging,
development, and studing MP3 frames produced by any
encoder.
lame_enc.dll a Windows DLL used by many GUIs which support lame.
(Can only be compiled by MSVC???)
lame.acm *** DEPRECATED ***
a Windows ACM codec which can be used by many windows programs,
and any directshow program. See MSVC project files in ACM
directory. Right click on lame.inf to install.
lame_enc.dshow a Windows direct show filter for lame. Potentially has
more flexability than the ACM codec, but code needs some
work. See MSVC project files in dshow directory
libmp3lame.a the static encoding library used by all platforms, required
by all the above targets.
libmp3lame.so shared version of libmp3lame.a for *NIX platforms
The following compile time options can be used. For libmp3lame.a and
lame_enc.dll, none are required. On non-unix systems, these options must
be set in config.h or in the IDE.
On unix systems, they are set via ./configure.
#define HAVE_MPGLIB compile in mpglib's mp3 *decoding* capibility
#define HAVE_VORBIS compile in Vorbis decoding capibility
(you need libvorbis already built)
#define NOANALYSIS do not compile in hooks used by the
MP3 frame analyzer.
Options for the command line encoder:
#define LIBSNDFILE to use Erik de Castro Lopo's libsndfile
for input.
=======================================================================
Building the software on *NIX platforms using configure:
=======================================================================
Run the following commands:
% ./configure
% make
% make install
For a complete list of options, try "./configure --help"
Some of the more usefull options:
For the encoding library:
--enable-mp3x Build the mp3 frame analyzer, 'mp3x'
--enable-mp3rtp Build the encode-to-RTP program, 'mp3rtp'
(broken as of August 2001)
For the LAME front end encoder:
--with-fileio=lame Use lame's internal file io routines [default]
=sndfile Use Erik de Castro Lopo's libsndfile (Supports
many more input formats, but no stdin possible
currently)
--with-sndfile-prefix=DIR Alternate location for libsndfile
(if --with-fileio=sndfile)
Other usefull configure options:
--enable-debug Build a debug version
--enable-expopt Enable some more optimizations flags for
the compiler, may or may not produce
faster code
--prefix = PATH default is /usr/local
(LAME currently installs:
/usr/local/bin/lame
/usr/local/lib/libmp3lame.a
/usr/local/lib/libmp3lame.so
/usr/local/include/lame.h
--with-vorbis Enable Ogg Vorbis decoding support
--with-vorbis-prefix = PATH specify where to find Vorbis libs
Some more advanced ways to influence the build procedure
(experienced users only, use it at your own risk):
- If you want to use some custom defines for building (e.g. some out
of the file "DEFINES") use:
* bourne shell or compatible (ash, bash, zsh, ...):
CONFIG_DEFS="-Dmy_define" ./configure
* C shell or compatible (csh, tcsh, ...):
setenv CONFIG_DEFS "-Dmy_define"
./configure
- If you want to use some additional options for the compiler:
* bourne shell or compatible (ash, bash, zsh, ...):
CFLAGS="--my_flag" ./configure
* C shell or compatible (csh, tcsh, ...):
setenv CFLAGS "--my_flag"
./configure
Or some combination of the above.
Note:
If configure detects the presents of "nasm" some additional speed
improvements get compiled in (additional assembler code to detect
and use multimedia extensions of the used processor).
=======================================================================
Building the software on *NIX platforms without configure:
=======================================================================
% make -f Makefile.unix
=======================================================================
Building the software on Windows with MSVC:
(or MSVC + 3rd party C compiler such as ICL)
=======================================================================
There are MSVC project files, and a Makefile.MSVC included with the
project. For production use, be sure to compile a "Release" target,
with the "maximum speed" compile option, and #define NDEBUG.
It is possible to compile the GTK frame analyzer under windows, see
README.WINGTK
Various build options can be set in configMS.h
Note: project files for building lame.exe seem to be broken or not
quite compatable with MSVC6. The most reliable way to build lame and
lame_enc.dll is to run the .bat script (comes with MSVC6) which sets
up your VC environment to work from the command line, and then:
copy configMS.h config.h
nmake -f Makefile.MSVC comp=msvc asm=no
Project files for the dll, ACM codec and directshow filter
seem to be in better sahpe.
=======================================================================
Building the software on Windows with free compilers:
=======================================================================
LAME can be compiled with various Windows ports (all free) of GCC (DJGPP,
Mingw32). See README.DJGPP.
For Mingw32, you should now be able to use the Unix Makefile that
comes with LAME. Try: "make -f Makefile.unix UNAME=MSDOS"
You may need to remove these lines from brhist.c:
#ifdef _WIN32
COORD Pos;
HANDLE CH;
CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO CSBI;
#endif
Mingw32 users may also try to use the unix configure script (explained
above), it has _untested_ support for Mingw32.
Cygwin users should use the unix configure script (explained above). If
you have problems with the configure script try:
CC=gcc ./configure
Patches to enable the build of the lame_enc.dll with Cygwin and autoconf /
automake / libtool are welcome!
To use the Borland C compiler (now free!) see README.B32 and Makefile.B32.
Borland can also compile the lame_enc.dll, but this is untested.
Can DJGPP or Mingw32 produce lame_enc.dll?
Various build options can be set in configMS.h
