thanks, I just noticed that you guys have posted new contribs, I'll go get them and start again; in the meantime - it says "...Once the compilation is done, you can either run VLC directly from the source tree or you can build self-contained VLC packages with the following make rules:..." ...

make win32-package-base. oops, I forgot to say specifically that my goal is to run the VLC in debugger - and it is. According to the build instruction, if i make the win32-package-base, it will be unusable with the debugger (http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32Compile, at the bottom) could you please hel...

thanks for your help! --disable-dirac worked (I had to take --enable-dirac from extras/package/win32/configure-common.sh as well), also I had to modify $PATH to add /usr/win32/bin From what i can tell, it built successfully. but when I try to run it, it basically fails - hangs in the background thou...

While building the vlc player using MinGW + MSYS under Windows XP SP3, when running the make, I got the following error message: Could anyone please advise? make[5]: Entering directory `/c/VLC/vlc/modules/codec' /bin/sh ../../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -std=gnu99 `top_builddir="../.."...

Well...let's continue. I uncompressed ffmpeg (snapshot) to C:\ffmpeg-20040103. Then I uncompressed faac to C:\faac. In C:\faac\libfaac I opened MS VC++ 7 ‘solution’ and finally build faac library (by VC++ 7). I made sure I had as an output result libfaac.a ( a static library), located in C:\faac\lib...

Sorry not to have answered this earlier... To build ffmpeg with faac support you first have to build and install libfaac. I usually do a ./configure --disable-shared --prefix=/usr/win32 to endup just with the .a and not shared libraries as well which are kind of useless on windows (you should end-u...

You didn't mention if you also downloaded and installed FAAC on your system, because this is also necessary, since the new file faac.c in ffmpeg is only the frontend, nothing more. You can get a weekly snapshot of the FAAC source code here: http://www.audiocoding.com/download.php Doing a search for...

I don't know why, but this forum software doesn't like my answers to this thread, so I posted it in the forum of Audiocoding.com instead... :evil: http://www.audiocoding.com/phorum/read.php?f=1&i=4617&t=4617 How to build ffmpeg with faac support in VLC Author: hans-jürgen Date: 01-23-04 21:...

ffmpeg needs to be built with gcc. Don't even hope to compile it with VC++. Once you have ffmpeg compiled it should be possible to link the ffmpeg module compiled with VC++ to it. This may require nasty hacks (like linking with libgcc) but should be possible (Xbox media player does it) Please tell ...
