Installation Instructions

Frei0r can be built using either Autoconf or CMake.

The choice is open, CMake is mandatory only on Windowz.

The presence of optional libraries on the system will trigger compilation of extra plugins. These libraries are:

  • Gavl required for scale0tilt and vectorscope filters

  • OpenCV required for facebl0r filter

  • Cairo required for cairo- filters and mixers

Autoconf build

./configure
make

CMake build

cmake .
make

Proceed with install

Default prefix is /usr/local, target directory is frei0r-1

A default make install as root will put the plugins into /usr/local/lib/frei0r-1 unless the prefix path is specified. Most applications will look into that directory on GNU/Linux, or it should be possible to configure where to look for frei0r plugins.

When using Apple/OSX, the dlopen() mechanism (in FFMpeg for instance) will look for .dylib extensions and not the .so that frei0r plugins have by default. To fix this problem one can rename the plugins simply so:

for file in /usr/local/lib/frei0r-1/*.so ; do
  cp $file "${file%.*}.dylib"
done
