The VideoLAN Forums

Hi Guys,

First I would like to say that this forum is full of knowledge and I have searched this forum for many days now, and i still can't find out how to import jvlc into eclipse to build an application that has the possibillity to play movies etc.

I've downloaded the .jar file from http://trac.videolan.org/jvlc/wiki/download
and in a terminal i have tried the following without succes: As you can see this did not work, and I don't know why
I am using Ubuntu 7.10.

I also have noticed the fact that the example codes is not available any more when I use the link .

http://trac.videolan.org/jvlc/browser/j ... lient.java

I am a patient guy and I want to do things my self but this time i don't know where to start.

So my goal is to have an application which makes it possible to play movies etc and also the application should have the navigational properties such as " play", "stop" etc.

Can any one please guide me

thanks in advance

kind regards,

H.

Hi,
you need maven2 installed (http://maven.apache.org). Once you have installed maven, from the bindings/java folder type:
mvn install
mvn eclipse:eclipse

then import the project as an Existing Java Project into Eclipse from the bindings/java/core folder.

I also have noticed the fact that the example codes is not available any more when I use the link .

http://trac.videolan.org/jvlc/browser/j ... lient.java

The link has been removed. The bindings/java/samples contains sample code.

Thanks for trying JVLC,
Filippo

It seems you are missing the pom.xml file in the bindings/java folder. Please be sure you are using git HEAD.

So "git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git" will not get me the same source as "svn checkout svn://svn.videolan.org/vlc/trunk vlc-trunk" ?

So "git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git" will not get me the same source as "svn checkout svn://svn.videolan.org/vlc/trunk vlc-trunk" ?

SVN is @Deprecated . Use git.

Ok thanks.

I found the python bindings are nice too, do you know if they use the same VLC API ?

Hi,
you are using an old version of the java bindings. Please get the new ones from git.
