Hi, I'm trying to install faac on Mac OS X so I can encode AAC audio into mp4 files using ffmpeg. I've downloaded:

http://www.audiocoding.com/modules/mydownloads/visit.php?cid=3&lid=20

And am following the install instructions:

1. Make sure you have autoconf, automake and libtool installed.
For MP4 support, you must have libmp4v2 (included in faad2) installed.
2. cd to FAAC source dir
3. Run:
./bootstrap
./configure
make
make install

Configure gets an error:

sweet:~/faac g5$ ./configure

sweet:~/faac g5$ make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to fix?

Thanks,

James.
