Hi, all...

I've successfully built current vlc-git, but, whenever I tried to run vlc, I got the following error messages:

Code: Select all

jiapei:vlc$ vlc
VLC media player 3.0.0-git Vetinari (revision 2.2.0-git-8089-g0be62e5)
[00000000018dd1a8] core libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
[0000000001b86ca8] skins2 interface error: no suitable dialogs provider found (hint: compile the qt plugin, and make sure it is loaded properly)

Can anybody give me a hand please?

Cheers

You need to compile the Qt plugin.

Hi, Thanks Jean...
My configuration comes with qt settings.

Code: Select all

...
checking for QT... yes
checking for QTX11... yes
checking for XI... yes
checking for moc-qt5... no
checking for moc... /opt/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin/moc
checking for rcc-qt5... no
checking for rcc... /opt/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin/rcc
checking for uic-qt5... no
checking for uic... /opt/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin/uic
...

Is my qt-plugin enabled? If NOT, how to enable it during configuration and building?

./configure --enable-skins2 gives me the following summary:

Code: Select all

jiapei:vlc$ ./configure --enable-skins2 >> 03_configresult.txt
