For your reference, on devices where there is no IOMX, the normal playback is as follows: D/VLC (13633): core input: selecting program id=0 D/VLC (13633): avformat demux: adding es: video codec = h264 (28) D/VLC (13633): avformat demux: adding es: audio codec = mp4a (86018) D/VLC (13633): avformat d...

Hi, I am running VLC built from scratch to play videos, works perfectly fine with software decoding, and gpu output on most devices, but failed miserably on Galaxy S4, with OMX. There is no error message, logcat shows: looking for decoder module module matching "mediacodec,iomx,all" Using ...

See my answer at https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=118754

I got it replaced with my customized ffmpeg library.

Figured out the answer.

See my post https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=118754

It's 5 steps to get your own library recompiled.

Since noone replied to me, it took me a while to figure it out. It's a bit tricky. 1. remove the .ffmpeg file to force rebuild 2. modify vlc/extras/package/ios/build.sh to remove the line "make fetch" which will NOT download anything from vlc github root 3. modify buildMobileVLCKit.sh to r...

Hi, Jean-Baptiste and Lawrie, I am trying similiar things to modify libav(ffmpeg) in my post https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=118754 After I remove .ffmpeg file, and run the build script, the build script is downloading the tar.gz file from rules.mak and overwrite all my changes. ...

Forget to update status.

Figured out, the way to build iOS.

https://wiki.videolan.org/VLCKit/

is the right place, where build is successful.

vs.

https://wiki.videolan.org/IOSCompile

Which gives me the error as indicated by the thread.

Can you dump the actual link errors?

One thing I've tried is through the link https://wiki.videolan.org/VLCKit/

Go to it's Demo project Examples_OSX/, and compare your project setting vs. the demo project setting. You will find the discrepencies.

Tweaked again, found config.log, here is the error ld: building for iOS Simulator, but linking against dylib built for MacOSX file '/usr/lib/libSystem.dylib' for architecture x86_64 Seems like running make .ffmpeg is not carrying forward the sysroot path correctly. Still don't know how to build cont...

Since nobody replied, here is what I tried. 1) I go to the following directory $ cd ./MobileVLCKit/ImportedSources/vlc/contrib/iPhoneSimulator-x86_64 2) run the following command $make .ffmpeg cd ffmpeg && CC="xcrun clang" CXX="xcrun clang++" LD="xcrun ld" AR=&q...

Dig a little more into the build scripts. It seems that ./MobileVLCKit/ImportedSources/vlc/contrib/src/ffmpeg/rules.mak is doing the trick here. It does 3 things. 1) download source code. 2) copy code to 5 different target platform. arm64/7/7s and iPhoneSimulator-i386/x86_64 2) for each platform, it...

Hi, I finally got VLC for iOS to build, now I am trying to modify the source code from libavformat to do some experiment. However, I don't know how the build script is building the libraries. Here is my understanding. For example, target for iPhoneSimulator-x86_64 1. The libformat.a file is built fr...

Seems like the build failed with a few Source files b/c of wrong import path: i.e., VLCSettingsController.m In file included from /Users/wminghao/Develop/vlc-iOS/ios/Sources/VLCSettingsController.m:16: In file included from /Users/wminghao/Develop/vlc-iOS/ios/Sources/VLCAppDelegate.h:22: /Users/wmin...

Hi, I followed the instruction to build vlc on iOS for the simulator in release mode. My Xcode is 5.1, and mac OS lion Here is what I run: sh ./compileVLCforiOS.sh -s It took an hour, and eventually it failed at the end, here is the error: info] Building MobileVLCKit (Aggregate static plugins, Relea...

Checked the length of libtag.a built under $(VLC_CONTRIB)/lib/libtag.a, the size is 8 bytes, obviously wrong. During the build process, it didn't stop due to libtag errors, not sure what happened. I tried to replace my custom built libtag.a with the one in $(VLC_CONTRIB)/lib, that does not work as w...

I searched the vlc build directory, and found that we built libtag manually. ./vlc/contrib/android/taglib/bindings/c/libtag_c.a ./vlc/contrib/android/taglib/taglib/libtag.a ./vlc/contrib/arm-linux-androideabi/lib/libtag_c.a ./vlc/contrib/arm-linux-androideabi/lib/libtag.a ./vlc/android/modules/.libs...

Hi, I am a newbie to VLC media player, and I followed the wiki (https://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile) to build android on Linux, and got to the following error at the end of build process when it's trying to build libvlcjni.so **** undefined reference to Taglib::xxx **** It seems it has a mismat...
