unresolved external symbol _libvlc_new

[jayboss]

Hi,

I am trying to compile a visual c++ project in Visual Studio 2012 where I am adding libvlc.lib to my project via the Properties >> Linker >> Input >> Additional Dependencies and adding the Library Directories entry in VC++ Directories section.

However, I am still getting unresolved external symbol errors with regards to the the API calls that exist in the library. I am not sure what I am doing wrong, whether I am missing some details. Any help with regards to this is greatly appreciated.

I also did a > dumpbin /EXPORTS libvlc.lib > lib.txt to see what the entries are and it contains all the API calls.
