Hi everyone, I create a "configure-vlc.sh" file as below, and then enter "dos2unix configure-vlc.sh" and "./configure-vlc.sh" commands, but the shell always show the "/configure-vlc.sh: line 1: ./configure: No such file or directory" error message. why ?

You are running it from wrong directory. You need to run it in vlc folder where you have files like NEWS, README etc.

because in your vlc folder there is no configure file. It's because your download vlc through git. Please download again from other source, and make sure configure file exist.

For anyone searching for this:
When pulled from GIT use ./bootstrap to generate m4 macros and prepare Makefiles.

You mean, like reading the doc?
