Yes I Think, this is what I took and what I did : (You will notice some 'changes' because this morning the compilation decided to work better
)
Cygwin install to fit "at best" the recommendations shown on
http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCy ... to_install
Downloaded the source package VLC 0.8.6d (
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-sources.html the .tar.bz2)
Downloaded the source package contrib-20070412-win32-bin-gcc-3.4.5-only.tar.bz2 (I follow the link into INSTALL.win32 text file)
Downloaded the x264-snapshot-20070412-2245.tar.bz2 from
ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x264/snapshots/
(My final goal is to recompile x264)
Extracted contrib package tar xjvf contrib-20070412-win32-bin-gcc-3.4.5-only.tar.bz2 -C /
HERE THERE ARE SOME STRANGE THINGS : It extracts to /usr/win32-branch (This has to be /usr/win32, hasn't it ?)
Nevermind, I link /usr/win32 to point to /usr/win32-branch .....
I also had a problem when configuring with live555 (--with-live555-tree parameter problem?), so I create a link from /live.com to /usr/win32/live.com
Configuring/Compiling x264 : Okay, but some instability while compiling (I think there's a problem with cygwin actual version, I submited this to cygwin.com and I'm waiting for answers....). Finally it's successful and I copy libx264.a to /usr/win32/lib and x264.h to /usr/win32/include
Modified source code vlc/modules/access_output/file.c and vlc/modules/access_output/udp.c (like I already said)
Also modified source code vlc/modules/mux/mpeg/pes.c in the same way
Configuring VLC, here's the command lines I use this morning (disabling freetype!):
Code: Select all
./toolbox --distclean
./bootstrap
CONTRIB_TREE=/usr/win32 \
PATH=${CONTRIB_TREE}/bin:$PATH \
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/win32/include -I/usr/win32/include/ebml" \
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/win32/lib \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/win32/lib/pkgconfig \
CC="gcc -mno-cygwin" CXX="g++ -mno-cygwin" \
./configure \
--enable-sdl --with-sdl-config-path=${CONTRIB_TREE}/bin \
--disable-gtk \
--disable-mkv \
--enable-nls \
--enable-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-mp3lame --with-ffmpeg-faac --with-ffmpeg-zlib \

--enable-caca --with-caca-config-path=${CONTRIB_TREE}/bin \

--enable-waveout \
--disable-macosx-audio \
--enable-wxwidgets \
--enable-wingdi \
--disable-dca \
--disable-xosd \
--disable-hal \
--disable-update-check
Before asking, yes! I tried --disable-optimizations and --enable-debug
and many other arguments
VLC Compilation, I tried "./compile" (the nice version ^^) and "make" ..... Often stops without any reason (cygwin problem?) but when I launch ./compile many times (to continue compilation), I've finally the error (today at 11:00am) :

Oooo yeah it almost did it
j-b, could you just compile VLC starting from scratch (i.e. new cygwin installation) and tell me if you meet the same problems ?
=> cygwin fault ? )
) crashes lol !
