I try to compile libvlc for window (32 bits) under debian dev (32 bits) and i have an error :

I use this proc from : https://wiki.videolan.org/Win32Compile :
start on : /home/wizard/Downloads/
git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git vlc
cd vlc
mkdir -p contrib/win32
cd contrib/win32
../bootstrap --host=i686-w64-mingw32
make prebuilt
cd /home/wizard/Downloads/vlc
./bootstrap
mkdir win32 && cd win32
export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/home/wizard/Downloads/vlc/contrib/vlc/contrib/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/pkgconfig
../extras/package/win32/configure.sh --host=i686-w64-mingw32
make << Error occur after a lot of line...

Do i forgot some things ?

I Try to add :
../configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32
make

But result is the same...

I Try to compile 3rd party too but it failed to :
$ mkdir -p contrib/win32
$ cd contrib/win32
$ ../bootstrap --host=i686-w64-mingw32
$ make fetch
$ make

Thanks for your help...

For the first part, you need to recompile ffmpeg. It's a bit hard.

I will try to fix it for you. Did you try a more recent contrib folder?

Thanks for your help for ffmpeg... my level is not enough to do this kind of things...

For your question : Did you try a more recent contrib folder?
Why not, but i don't know how doing ?

My goal is to generate libvlc dll and associated ".h\.a" for pair window\Mingw-w64...
It's for a custom player using OpenGL with out of tree module video and audio out modules.
I already do the job for Linux and Android, and except for the audio module under Android every things is working fine...

Thanks for your help,

I have some of those errors too when building win32 with i686-w64-mingw32 on ubuntu :
According to google, inflateInit2_ is part of zlib.
I just disable qt & chromaprint, but all the other contribs are building fine, including freetype and zlib.

After one week, i found a solution... base on "Win32Compile"
I don't known if it's the best solution... it may not... there's a lot of warning and some error...but it's work... ~o~
Test done under debian dev with wine and an avi with small bit-rate...
Replace "/home/wizard/Downloads" by your base path
I highlight change.

Exe, dll, Headers and libs are on : vlc/win32/vlc-3.0.0-git/

I don't have the time to restart from scratch to check... yet... if you try please reply on this thread for error or success.

I upload the result ( 400.3 Mb after unpack ) http://6bxhu0p4z8.1fichier.com/

freetype issue is now fixed, you can pull and rebuild your contribs.
