Excelent. Can you please ponit me at the details, been ooking for this for ages.

Also do I need a specific flavor or linux, do I need to compile from source.

I cannot answer distro-specific questions. If your distro does not support it, then you need to compile.

OK, I will compile. Is this correct?

$ apt-get source vlc
$ apt-get build-dep vlc
$ cd /root/vlc*
$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure --with-decklink-sdk="/root/Blackmagic DeckLink SDK 10.1.4"
$ make
