FFmpeg update. XP: shared static libfdk-aac VISTAx86: shared static libfdk-aac

@nicolaasjan I have attempted to make compatible 64-bit OpenSSL shared libraries using MSYS2. If you would like to test them.

FFmpeg update. XP: shared static libfdk-aac VISTAx86: shared static libfdk-aac

FFmpeg update. XP: static shared libfdk-aac VISTAx86: static shared libfdk-aac

Either libfdk-aac library should work fine on Vista. The Windows 7 version was compiled with GCC 15 but it looks like I neglected to strip the file so it is larger than it needs to be. I will link a corrected file next time. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

I guess the extra features fulfills the plus part of Vista+. I understand the desire for targeted features and size reduction though. Now, with a known working configuration we can certainly remove features. That part will be easy. I can start with the items you listed for a future build. The libfdk-aac external functionality is included for parity with the XP version and of course the dll is not required to run the FFmpeg binaries. This functionality can also be removed if desired.

FFmpeg shared for Vista x86.

@VistaLover The Windows 7 builds are the only ones I had published until posting in this thread. I also have Vista specific builds locally as I still run Vista x64. If you are not looking for a shared build of the XP version, I may be able to put something together in a 32-bit shared configuration that targets Vista. If you are willing to test? This would be XP incompatible, so Vista and up.

Updated FFmpeg for Windows XP. Same libfdk-aac.

After checking it out, I see what you mean. Thanks for clarifying. It is impressive work and ongoing for quite some time.

Yes, if there is interest I will update periodically. @xjani I was not aware of your work. I will check it out.

Thank you @nicolaasjan for your yt-dlp builds. I have made a Windows XP compatible build of FFmpeg that targets a Pentium 4. I relied heavily on rdp and @Reino build scripts so thanks also to them. ffmpeg-8.1-630-635cb4543f-win32-static-xpmod-P4.7z libfdk-aac-2.0.3-158-d8e6b1a-win32-xpmod-P4.7z

Steam is still supported on Vista. Origin however, has dropped support for XP and Vista. Other software supported on Vista: foobar2000 (just updated today) 7zip
