Hi,

I'm using:

Summary     : Hyper fast MPEG1/MPEG4/H263/RV and AC3/MPEG audio encoder


on my openSuSE 12.2  system.

ffmpeg is not using the provided preset-files:

/usr/share/ffmpeg/libvpx-1080p.ffpreset
/usr/share/ffmpeg/libvpx-1080p50_60.ffpreset
/usr/share/ffmpeg/libvpx-360p.ffpreset
/usr/share/ffmpeg/libvpx-720p.ffpreset
/usr/share/ffmpeg/libvpx-720p50_60.ffpreset
/usr/share/ffmpeg/libx264-ipod320.ffpreset
/usr/share/ffmpeg/libx264-ipod640.ffpreset


strace turn out, that it is looking for files with an "avpreset" extension
(which are not present)

The output of
 strace -e trace=open ffmpeg -i MVI_0211.MOV  -pre libvpx-1080p  out.avi
is:

open("/home/mike/.avconv/mpeg4-libvpx-1080p.avpreset", O_RDONLY) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/home/mike/.avconv/libvpx-1080p.avpreset", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/ffmpeg/mpeg4-libvpx-1080p.avpreset", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/ffmpeg/libvpx-1080p.avpreset", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
