Disable dshow plugin

Postby sysadmin999 » 26 Oct 2016 16:19

I am building VLC 2.2.4
I cannot make as dshow is giving me this error
../../extras/package/win32/../../../modules/access/dshow/dshow.cpp:1729:52: error: ‘MEDIASUBTYPE_I420’ was not declared in this scope
mtr.subtype = MEDIASUBTYPE_I420;
I don't care about dshow. I try to disable it in configure step

Code: Select all

cd vlc && mkdir -p win32 && cd win32 && export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=$HOME/vlc/contrib/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig && ../extras/package/win32/configure.sh --host=x86_64-w64-mingw32 --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --disable-dshow
--disable-show is not a recognized option, even though I see it in wikis all over the place.

DirectShow is built automatically depending on the target platform, like most Windows plugins.

You might need to update your toolchain.
