I’m using Using FFmpeg with NVIDIA GPU Hardware Acceleration :: NVIDIA Video Codec SDK Documentation for Windows 10

All goes well until I hit the last three commands:

• Goto nv-codec-headers directory and install ffnvcodec

make install PREFIX=/usr

• Go to the FFmpeg installation folder and run the following command.

./configure --enable-nonfree –disable-shared --enable-cuda-sdk --enable-libnpp –-toolchain=msvc --extra-cflags=-I../nv_sdk --extra-ldflags=-libpath:../nv_sdk

• Compile the code by executing the following command.

make -j 8

I cannot get the ‘make’ command to work – I get 'make' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I did try the next command, the ./configure one, this was also rejected.

The documentation is : https://docs.nvidia.com/video-technologies/video-codec-sdk/ffmpeg-with-nvidia-gpu/

Can anyone please help with this?

    You do not have make installed, it seems. The documentation that you are following should indicate the prerequisites to build ffmpeg, but you have not fulfilled them. – Hernán Alarcón Jan 15 '21 at 19:48

Generally if you are compiling software from source on linux you need to have many different build tools installed. Most distributions bundle all the basic software compiling tools into a single virtual package.

On debian and ubuntu you need to

apt install build-essential
