CentOS 7

The following instructions are for CentOS 7.7.

Basic requirements to run commands:

• curl
• sudo (for normal user accounts)

Dependencies:

• Development Tools
• Additional Development
• fribidi-devel
• git
• jansson-devel
• libogg-devel
• libsamplerate-devel
• libtheora-devel
• libvorbis-devel
• numactl-devel
• python3
• speex-devel
• xz-devel

Additional dependencies not available in the base repository:

• devtoolset-7 [SCL] (optional/recommended for HandBrake [CLI](abbr:Command Line Interface))
• lame-devel [RPM Fusion]
• libass-devel [EPEL]
• libvpx
• meson [EPEL]
• nasm [NASM]
• ninja-build [EPEL]
• opus-devel [EPEL EL6]
• x264-devel [RPM Fusion]

Graphical interface dependencies:

• dbus-glib-devel
• gstreamer1-devel
• gstreamer1-plugins-base-devel
• intltool
• libgudev1-devel
• libnotify-devel
• webkitgtk4-devel

Additional graphical interface dependencies not available in the base repository:

• devtoolset-7 [SCL]
• gstreamer1-libav [RPM Fusion]

Intel Quick Sync Video dependencies (optional):

• libva
• libdrm

Install dependencies.

sudo yum update
sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
sudo yum install fribidi-devel git jansson-devel libogg-devel libsamplerate-devel libtheora-devel libvorbis-devel numactl-devel python3 opus-devel speex-devel xz-devel

Install the EPEL repository and related additional dependencies.

sudo yum install epel-release
sudo yum install libass-devel meson ninja-build

The opus-devel package provided by CentOS 7 is too old. Install a newer version provided by EPEL for CentOS 6¹.

sudo yum localinstall $(curl -L -s 'https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/Packages/o/' | grep -Eo 'opus-[^">]+\.x86_64\.rpm' | sort -u | awk '{ print "https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/Packages/o/"$0 }')

The nasm package provided by CentOS 7 is too old. Install a newer version provided by the NASM project².

sudo curl -L 'https://nasm.us/nasm.repo' -o /etc/yum.repos.d/nasm.repo
sudo yum install nasm

The libvpx-devel package provided by CentOS 7 is too old. Build and install a newer version from source³.

# remove old package if installed
sudo yum remove libvpx-devel

# libvpx
curl -L https://github.com/webmproject/libvpx/archive/v1.8.1.tar.gz -o libvpx-1.8.1.tar.gz
tar -xf libvpx-1.8.1.tar.gz
cd libvpx-1.8.1
./configure --enable-shared --enable-static --as=nasm --enable-pic --enable-runtime-cpu-detect --enable-vp8 --enable-vp9
make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install
..

# make shared libraries findable
export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS:-} -I/usr/local/include"
export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS:-} -L/usr/local/lib"
echo 'export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS:-} -I/usr/local/include"' >> "${HOME}/.bashrc"
echo 'export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS:-} -L/usr/local/lib"' >> "${HOME}/.bashrc"
if ! grep '\/usr\/local\/lib' /etc/ld.so.conf >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    echo '/usr/local/lib' | sudo tee --append /etc/ld.so.conf
    sudo ldconfig
fi

The lame-devel and x264-devel packages are now provided by the RPM Fusion repository. If you previously installed the ZMREPO repository for these packages, remove them and the repository before continuing.

# Only necessary if previously installed ZMREPO
sudo yum repo-pkgs zmrepo remove
sudo yum remove zmrepo

Install the RPM Fusion Free repository and related additional dependencies.

sudo yum localinstall --nogpgcheck https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/rpmfusion-free-release-7.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install lame-devel x264-devel

To build the GTK [GUI](abbr:Graphical User Interface), install the graphical interface dependencies.

sudo yum install dbus-glib-devel gstreamer1-devel gstreamer1-libav gstreamer1-plugins-base-devel intltool libgudev1-devel libnotify-devel webkitgtk4-devel

To build with Intel Quick Sync Video support, install the QSV dependencies.

sudo yum install libva-devel libdrm-devel

The GNU Compiler Collection and related packages provided by CentOS 7 are old. Install and enable a newer version provided by Software Collections (SCL)⁴. This is recommended for building the HandBrake [CLI](abbr:Command Line Interface) and required for building the GTK [GUI](abbr:Graphical User Interface).

sudo yum install centos-release-scl
sudo yum install devtoolset-7
sudo scl enable devtoolset-7 bash  # launches a bash session with the appropriate tools enabled

# make shared libraries findable by root
export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS:-} -I/usr/local/include"
export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS:-} -L/usr/local/lib"
echo 'export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS:-} -I/usr/local/include"' >> "${HOME}/.bashrc"
echo 'export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS:-} -L/usr/local/lib"' >> "${HOME}/.bashrc"

CentOS is now prepared to build HandBrake. See Building HandBrake for Linux for further instructions.
