hi all I try to compile vlc under cygwin. I just do a clean cygwin install.

I unzip the contribe tar file in the /usr/win32.

i put the bootstrap line that is mantioned in the compile.win32.

type make

and near the end of the make, i get this error:

I realy don't know what to do with this error

Jonathan

You may be having a problem with the ebml stuff. I have seen several post on this. Check out this post viewtopic.php?t=12493 . In particular when it talks about disable ebml stuff. It looks like under some ,(most maybe?) ,The latest snapshots don't work with this enabled. I have finally been ablet to build under W2k and W98SE but not under XP at all. Good Luck.

this error is because you chose a contrib package that says "gcc-3.3.1-only" but then you used gcc-3.4.4
the 2 easiest options are:

1. --disable-mkv if you want to, and keep 3.4.4

2. or downgrade the gcc packages to 3.3.3

ok I try to disable it.

under cygwin i don't see anywhere where i can downgrade to 3.3.1

Jonathan

You can't downgrade to 3.3.1 but as pointed out in other posts, you can downgrade easily to 3.3.3 which does work. You may have a lot of questions coming up. There has been a lot of discussions about this very recently in this forum, Please read those before posting since a lot has already been discussed. Thanks, Good Luck

i have been able to compile it with the --disable-mkv

thanx

Jonathan

Are you building on Windows XP? I still can not build on it. If you are will you post your config script file? Also GCC, G++, autoconf, automake versions. Thanks
