Cannot compile on arch linux since move to meson

[agressiv]

I am unable to compile the latest build on 8.08:

Run-time dependency avisynth found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)

meson.build:140:2: ERROR: Problem encountered: VapourSynth headers not found (require V3: VapourSynth.h/VSScript.h and V4: VSScript4.h)

I tried to modify meson_options.txt to make avisynth false, but even with Avisynth and Vapoursynth both installed - I still can't get past this. I was able to build using cmake before on 8.03, but I don't have much experience with meson.

Please check if there is old QSVPipeline/rgy_config.h and remove if exists.

Then below might work to disable avisynth and vapoursynth.

  meson setup ./build_qsvenc . -Dbuildtype=release -Denable_avisynth=false -Denable_vapoursynth=false
  meson compile -C ./build_qsvenc

I had purged the whole QSVEnc directory entirely and did a fresh git clone --recursive before beginning. This command works, but I was counting on using Vapoursynth.

VapourSynth R73 doesn't provide the older header anymore, just VSScript4.h. Arch linux's Vapoursynth package is the same.

Latest git commit ae0f978 will automatically use vapoursynth R72 headers for build which might allow to build with vapoursynth enabled.

However I recommend to not use qsvencc vpy reader (as it's smoetimes unstable in Linux), but simply use vspipe and pipe to qsvencc.

vspipe -c y4m script.vpy - | qsvencc --y4m -i - -o output.mp4
