the static libraries, as described above. But in Step 4,
you should only need to add the directory where the LIB files are installed
(i.e. @file{c:\msys\usr\local\bin}). This is not a typo, the LIB files are
-installed in the @file{bin} directory. And instead of adding @file{libxx.a}
-files, you should add @file{avcodec.lib}, @file{avformat.lib}, and
-@file{avutil.lib}. There should be no need for @file{libmingwex.a},
+installed in the @file{bin} directory. And instead of adding the static
+libraries (@file{libxxx.a} files) you should add the MSVC import libraries
+(@file{avcodec.lib}, @file{avformat.lib}, @file{avcore.lib}, and
+@file{avutil.lib}). Note that you should not use the GCC import
+libraries (@file{libxxx.dll.a} files), as these will give you undefined
+reference errors. There should be no need for @file{libmingwex.a},
@file{libgcc.a}, and @file{wsock32.lib}, nor any other external library
statically linked into the DLLs. The @file{bin} directory contains a bunch
of DLL files, but the ones that are actually used to run your application
are the ones with a major version number in their filenames
(i.e. @file{avcodec-51.dll}).
+FFmpeg headers do not declare global data for Windows DLLs through the usual
+dllexport/dllimport interface. Such data will be exported properly while
+building, but to use them in your MSVC++ code you will have to edit the
+appropriate headers and mark the data as dllimport. For example, in
+libavutil/pixdesc.h you should have:
+@example
+extern __declspec(dllimport) const AVPixFmtDescriptor av_pix_fmt_descriptors[];
+@end example
