can't build NeutrinoRDP with gcc 4.9, cmake 3.0

[FrankVanDamme]

I tried building NeutrinoRDP on Manjaro Linux, which fails. I did a plain "cmake ." and "make", the errors are below. (I only tried because both the xrdp server and NeutrinoRDP wouldn't build on a more common Ubuntu version distro).

[frank@limoen NeutrinoRDP]$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.0.1

CMake suite maintained and supported by Kitware (kitware.com/cmake).
[frank@limoen NeutrinoRDP]$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.9.1

I tried to build NeutrinoRDP today with Ubuntu 14.10, same problems, part of it was already solved here:
FreeRDP/FreeRDP#1610

But I still get now:

Is this issue resolved? I am having the same issue on el6

Is there a document showing the version of FFMPEG, CMAKE, GCC etc we need to use to compile NeutrinoRDP?

[jsorg71]

When you compile NeutrinoRDP, you ca turn off ffmpeg with
cmake . -DWITH_FFMPEG=OFF
libavcodec(ffmpeg) is known for breaking builds between versions.

[srini8080]

Jay,

My goal is to get movies and animated gifs show smoothly on xrdp. I saw your youtube videos with codecs and your posts on ffmpeg with neutrino builds.

I have ffmpeg 2.2.1 with libavutil52.

Thanks,

[srini8080]

Also I have everything running well. Sound, FUSE redirection etc. Only issue is video

[jsorg71]

If you want to test codec mode, you don't need to configure xrdp with --enable-neutrinordp.
That is used for RDP to RDP proxies.
You want to configure xrdp with --enable-tjpeg.
And configure NeutrinoRDP with -DWITH_TJPEG=ON for the client.
Turbo jpeg codec mode only works with NeutrinoRDP as the client.
You can do RemoteFX codec mode too but it's not as fast yet and that has the limitation of NeutrinoRDP or FreeRDP clients.
Still some work to do on codec mode.

[srini8080]

My server is el6 v6.6 and clients are all thin clients (over 40 of them). I do sesman-xvnc as default.
Will TJPEG work with this config?

Thanks,

[srini8080]

Also I can do GNOME or KDE or XFCE4 as session.

[srini8080]

Also errors which makes me manually add -lfreerdp-utils and -lfreerdp-codec
