Hi!

I'm wondering if the Wiki related to cross compiling for ARM is updated. It seems that the information there is quite old.
Has anyone successfully managed to build libVLC for ARM?

Any hints how to configure the build to get it working?

I'm really new at this. Could you maybe explain how to configure so that I can build for ARM on my MAC OS X ?

My config.mak file in the extras/contrib folder looks like this before I run make: # Automatically generated by bootstrap. # Make changes if you know what you're doing. ARCH = BUILD = i686-apple-darwin10 HOST = i686-apple-darwin10 PREFIX = /Users/bcalpe/programming/vlc-1.1.11/extras/contrib/hosts/nt...

How do you specify with the bootstrap to point to the correct ARM compiler ?

Hi! I'm trying to build libVLC for ARM on my MAC OS X computer. I first go to the extras/contrib folder and type: ./bootstrap arm-eabi unix I suppose that line means that I want to build for ARM building on UNIX(my MAC OS X). Is this correct? Later I type: make This gives me some errors. make make -...

What is the VLC contrib system?? I have tried to build libmad for QNX using QCC. I manage to rung ./configure with all the parameters and point out my QCC. When I make I get these errors: synth.c: In function 'dct32': synth.c:218: error: impossible constraint in 'asm' synth.c:219: error: impossible ...

Do I need to install the libmad lib on my Mac OS X.. or build it from source and install it on my MAC?
Will that really work on QNX as well?

Hi! I'm trying to get libVLC to build on QNX. when I run ./configure CC=ntoarm-gcc --host=arm-unknown-nto-qnx6.5.0 --target=arm-unknown-nto-qnx6.5.0 CXX=arm-unknown-nto-qnx6.5.0-g++ CFLAGS=-static CXXFLAGS=-static --disable-lua I get configure: error: Could not find libmad on your system: you may ge...

thanks. I will try that.
If I want to build the libvlc for QNX how do I specify to build using my QNX toolchain??

Do I somehow specify with a parameter to use another toolchain??

Hi! I'm trying to only build libvlc but can't really find any information how to do this. I managed to build VLC for Ubuntu, successfully started the VLC Media Player. Now I would like to only build the library file so I can use it for my own application. I know that you can find it precompiled but ...
