Hi All
I worked out how to build VLC on my FC3.
some of the contents came from the links of this forum.
build VLC
-----------Step 1---------------------------
Download the latest wxwindows (now refered to as wxWidgets)
1. Open a terminal window and extract it tar -xzvf wx*.tar.gz
2. cd wx*
3. ./configure --enable-shared
4. make
5. make install (must be root)
6. Edit /etc/ld.so.conf, add /usr/local/lib and save changes
7. /sbin/ldconfig
-----------Step 2-------------------------
install all the libraries and build them.
for example;
Install libdvdcss (DVD support)
$ mkdir ~/videolan ; cd ~/videolan
$ wget http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/video ... .8.tar.bz2
$ tar -jxvf libdvdcss-1.2.8.tar.bz2 ; cd libdvdcss-1.2.8
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr ; make ; sudo make install
Compile faad2 (AAC support)
$ cd ~/videolan ; wget http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/video ... 23.tar.bz2
$ tar -jxvf faad2-20040923.tar.bz2 ; cd faad2-20040923
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr ; cd libfaad ; make
Compile ffmpeg (support for H264 and many other codecs)
$ cd ~/videolan ; cvs -z9 -d:pserver:anonymous@mplayerhq.hu:/cvsroot/ffmpeg co ffmpeg
$ cd ffmpeg ; ./configure --enable-pp --enable-gpl ; make
the followings are the libraries you need based on youhr applications
