I just downloaded the latest nightly build 20070226-0001 and tried it with my new skin. No errors displayed while loading it...

[00000325] skins2 interface: skin: VLC 0.8.5 Default Skin author: aLtgLasS
[00000325] skins2 interface: new theme successfully loaded (C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Daniel\Eigene Dateien\tools\VLC\skins\Default Remix\DefaultRemix_090.vlt)

...yet a lot of images are not displayed, that also being the fact with most other skins.
The only error reported once while loading another skin was:

[00000497] ffmpeg private error: could not init SwScaler

Here a screenshot how Blissta looks like in this build:


EDIT: woohoo 111 posts^^

Yes, this seems to be because freetype 2.3.1...

Yah, any version of the nightlies post 20070129 have not rendered the .9 only version of my WMP11 skin. I haven't though much about it, as nightlies may have incomplete or non-working code. I was waiting for a beta release before complaining. I must say, though, 20070129 works great!

Hmmm... Yes, 0.9.0 is very unstable.
Could you make a trac ticket please ? Version 0.9.0-bugs !

Done. Ticket #1080.

Yay! This seems to have been fixed in current nightlies.

I really need details on that one please. Which nightly are you talking about?

Nightlies post 20070129 had the display error as explained above. I recently downloaded 20070407 and the skins are now rendering properly. I don't know when the fix was applied, but it seems to be working now with current nightlies.

Trunk or branch ?

trunk (win32 builds)

Thanks a lot.

And yes, I changed the contribs, that is why it has changed.

Just to mention:

In last contrib package all .la files in /usr/win32/lib have "dependency_libs" and "libdir" paths pointing to: /home/videolan/jb/vlc-trunk-0.90/extras/contrib/lib

The path should be /usr/win32/lib, or at least it was on previous contrib builds.
