Building the Audio Extraction Utility - Windows

Compiling the necessary prerequisites, then AudioExtract

We have broken the compilation process down into two steps.

First, if you don't already have it, download the compile_support_files.sh Unix Shell script. This script handles the configuration and compiling of nasm, lame, x264, faad, and zlib, in that order. This script should only need to be run once. To run it, type "./compile_support_files.sh" in the MSYS Window.

Finally, we compile FFmpeg and Transana's AudioExtract program. If you don't already have it, download the compile_ffmpeg.sh Unix Shell script. To run it, type "./compile_ffmpeg.sh" in the MSYS Window. If you are making changes to Transana's AudioExtract code, this is the only step you should have to repeat.

When this script is done, there should be a file called audioextract.exe in the /home/<username>/transana_ffmpeg/ffmpeg directory.

Good luck!
