Compile VLC 8.6c with Cygwin problem
Posted: 17 Oct 2008 18:36
Hi;
I want to use h264 transcoding stream and i need to compile VLC 8.6c with h264 support.
I need o use old api with my VC project . My aim is to stream web cam with h264. VLC 8.6c binary doesnt support h264 and it turns h264 streaming into mpeg2 streaming. So i tough it is better me to compile VLC 8.6c with h264.. It is nice to know if there is already compiled version with h264 from you guys
Here is what i ve done;
I downloaded Cygwin with all necessary libraries and tools from http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwin
I downloaded contrib-20070530-win32-bin-gcc-3.4.5-only.tar.bz2 and extract it into C:\cygwin\usr\win32
I guess --enable-x264 is enough to have h264 support for streaming isnt it ?
when i call bootstrap it erased configure script
I just copy it again in the folder ..
Anyway when the configure is running down ..
error: libiconv is needed for VLC to work properly .. I checked but libiconv was in the /usr/win32/lib.. Thought i install cygwin with this option.. What might be wrong ? Is it about my flags?
Thank you
