At long last, I have a reasonable — and much improved — autobuild\/test infrastructure running for FFmpeg<\/a>. Visit it at builds.multimedia.cx<\/a>. It’s a bit sparse right now as it only covers builds for 2 platforms (x86_32 and PowerPC, both on Linux) and only a handful of tests, which are actually pseudo-tests, only logging the filesizes of the ‘ffmpeg’, ‘ffplay’, and ‘ffserver’ binaries. Also, you will notice that the testbed makes an effort to keep up with recent SVN builds of gcc.<\/p>\n

I’m hopeful for this new infrastructure; the sky’s the proverbial limit. In the short term, I will be adding x86_64\/Linux builds. Solaris\/Sparc and Mac OS X builds might be on the way as well. My other high priority right now is to create an administrative web form that will enable me (and hopefully some co-admins) to add and edit test specifications easily. It’s not ergonomic to do this through the MySQL console. Here are the top test ideas so far:<\/p>\n
