Fatal error on Windows XP

[nicolaasjan]

Hi,
I had successfully built a 32bit XP-compatible version with the option build_intel_qsv=n (line 2675), but when calling ffmpeg in a Dutch XP SP3 it gave the error (translated):

The NtCreateFile API failed. This error should never be returned to an application, it is a place holder for the Windows Lan Manager Redirector to use in its internal error mapping routines

I did some searching and found a thread on Doom9's Forum, where someone found out that the option --disable-mediafoundation had to be added. I inserted that in line 2323.

So I recompiled (with the cross_compilers folder still intact) , but the resulting binary gave exactly the same error...

What am I missing here?

I don't think ffmpeg itself has supported XP for awhile...you have to go back to a specific version. I put a few builds xp here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ffmpegwindowsbi/files/random_builds/ but it isn't easy...I can't remember all the specifics, I've done a few with funding. Good luck!

Oh...,
Well, I thought it would be somehow possible, because Reino still builds them (on Windows) with a fork of your script. I don't know if I can run that on Linux.

If you can figure out which library is using the "non xp" functions you could exclude it...
