libvlc.dll(libvlc.lib) include/using problems in VS
Posted: 15 Apr 2014 09:52
Hi Guys!
I wanted to set up a Visual C++ Project using the libvlc.dll (libvlc.lib) and have encountered problems by doing that.
I actually created a libvlc.lib file by following this instructions: https://wiki.videolan.org/GenerateLibFromDll/
(it's size is 68 KB if neccessary)
now i tried to link it to my Project and the main looks like:
nothing more, so far.
Properties of the Solution:
@Properties->Linker->Input-> "Additional Dependencies": "libvlc.lib"
@Properties->C/C++->Additional Include Directories:
C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\ (and)
C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\sdk\include
no compiler problems so far, but as soon as I start the program a console window opens and get an error message:
"The program can't start because libvlc.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem"
So I checked wether the dll is available and IT IS. under the vlc installing directory. As I copied it to SYSWOW64 Folder (to add it to other dlls) it crashed again, so I deleted it again from SYSWOW64.
I really do not know, how I can fix that, please, please help me.
