Prerequisites
=============

Ubuntu 12.04 comes with gcc 4.6, please update your gcc to version 4.7:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7 g++-4.7
$ sudo update-alternatives --remove gcc /usr/bin/gcc-4.6

Remove libav:
$ apt-get remove libavcodec53 libavformat53
$ apt-get remove libswscale2 
$ apt-get remove libavutil51
$ apt-get remove libavutil-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev
  
Get a recent ffmpeg:

    ffmpeg-2.8.6 

Review your CFLAGS:
$ echo $CFLAGS

And change/set accordingly:
$ export CFLAGS="-mfpu=neon -march=armv7 -ftree-vectorize -mvectorize-with-neon-quad -O3"

Build ffmpeg:

$ ./configure --enable-shared --enable-nonfree --enable-neon --prefix=/usr
$ make -j8
$ sudo make install


Configuring veejay
==================

$ sh autogen.sh
$ ./configure 
$ make -j8
$ sudo make install

When you run veejay, you can see if NEON optimizations are built-in:
