Hello, can someone please provide a link for a precompiled version of LibVLC for iOS? (.a file)

Unfortunately I seem unable to compile from the git repository

At the moment, live555 has been updated and therefore the build will fail. I assume this will be fixed very soon.
For the impatient ones:

Code: Select all

Files to change when live555 updates (backport to older vlc versions)

** VLCKit/MobileVLCKit/ImportedSources/vlc/contrib/src/live555/rules.mak : Line 3 **
===
LIVE555_FILE := live.2016.02.22.tar.gz

** VLCKit/MobileVLCKit/ImportedSources/vlc/contrib/src/live555/SHA512SUMS : Line 1 **

These changes should work at the moment, until the next live555 version is out and the one referred here is removed.

Nightly builds are available at http://nightlies.videolan.org
Follow the Link to MacOS X, go one folder up, then go into iOS. This brings you to http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/ios/
There you find several builds of MobileVLCKit.

Cheers,

SSB

Hallo, thanks for the links.

The build script runs for a long time, then fails because I dont have Java installed. Very weird.

Anyway, I have downloaded a ZIP file from the nightlies website.

Inside it, there is a .framework file.

I was hoping to find a simple .a library file.

Any hints on how to obtain .a files?

Thank you
