vlc-android compiling problem

[ReadyXuMin]

I find another vlc git tree for android.
git://git.videolan.org/vlc-ports/android.git
I follow this http://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile
but I got problem:

Anyone who can help?

I have the same error. I'm compiling in Ubuntu 11.10 in a Virtualbox VM.

[ReadyXuMin]

error: previous declaration of 'int vlc_poll(pollfd*, unsigned int, int)' with 'C++' linkage
../../../../extras/package/android/../../../include/vlc_network.h:170: error: conflicts with new declaration with 'C' linkage

that's the problem.
now I compiled libvlcjni.so
It doesn't work on X8 (armv6) I'll try it on other phone tomorrow.

[diggity_55]

How did you get it to compile?

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Update the git, I fixed it.

Hi,
I try to compile VLC for Android 2.3 I follow VLC How to for Android
And get the following error:

I use Ubuntu 11.10

Code: Select all

find: `vlc/android/modules': No such file or directory No VLC modules found in vlc/android/modules make: *** [vlc-android/jni/libvlcjni.h] Error 1

i'm getting the same error... i'm running linux mint 12. I'm also trying to compile for 2.3 with neon enabled.

I installed all of the dev programs listed on the android compile page, build-essential, and apt-get build-dep vlc and it still won't compile.


there is a modules folder at */vlc/modules but not at vlc/android/modules, so it's like its looking for it in the wrong place maybe.

Code: Select all

3dnow codec lua mux video_chroma access common.am Makefile.am notify video_filter access_output control Makefile.in packetizer video_output altivec demux media_library services_discovery visualization arm_neon genmf meta_engine sse2 audio_filter gui misc stream_filter audio_mixer LIST mmx stream_out audio_output list.sh mmxext text_renderer

that's the output of ls */android/vlc/modules

so then I tried

VLC_MODULES=~/android/vlc/ VLC_BUILD_DIR=~/android/vlc make

and got

Code: Select all

No VLC modules found in /home/anonymous/android/vlc/modules make: *** [vlc-android/jni/libvlcjni.h] Error 1

and ideas?

[risho]

after rooting around in the install.sh i think i found the problem.

running the configure.sh from ~/android/vlc/extras/package/android

i get this output

configure: error: Update live555 or pass --disable-live555 to disable RTSP input support.

so then I changed the script to say --disable-live555 instead of disable and now I'm stuck at

configure: error: "Could not find IOMX headers"

~/android/vlc/extras/package/android $ sh configure.sh

any ideas?

EDIT: k so after some gross editing i disabled IOMX and got the configure file to finish and now I'm in the process of compiling it. if somehow this monster manages to still run I'll be amazed.

EDIT2: no such luck, i just got confused and lost myself. I'm gunna try to compile it using the how to instead of the install.sh, because it seems to be really broken at this point.

EDIT3: I'm about to start pulling my hair out. I'm about at the point where I'm thinking this is impossible to compile.

So I went back and looked through the install.sh and the HOWTO (i'm thinking the howto is deprecated) and I've made it all the way through and gotten to the part where it tells me to compile it VLC_BUILD_DIR=/path/to/builddir and when I put in the build dir it outputs

Code: Select all

anonymous@anonymous-lmd ~/android $ VLC_BUILD_DIR=~/android/vlc/builddir/ make === Building bvlcjni with neon === make[1]: Entering directory `/home/anonymous/android/vlc-android' Compile thumb : vlcjni <= libvlcjni.c Compile thumb : vlcjni <= aout.c Compile thumb : vlcjni <= thumbnailer.c SharedLibrary : libvlcjni.so /home/anonymous/android-ndk-r5b/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-androideabi/4.4.3/../../../../arm-linux-androideabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lmedia collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [/home/anonymous/android/vlc-android/obj/local/armeabi/libvlcjni.so] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/anonymous/android/vlc-android' make: *** [vlc-android/libs/armeabi/libvlcjni.so] Error 2

I'm thinking there's something else I have to do to compile jni before I can do the complete make back in the root of the git, but i can't quite figure it out.

Well yeah
VLC on android is incomplete, unfinished, buggy, slow, it doesn't even compile.

Why are so much people trying to build it anyway? There's not much to be seen at the moment, but the forum is filled with people failing to build it.

Just don't waste your time on it, when I get my hands on an android device I will set up an automatic buildbot to make nightly builds; so you won't have to build VLC yourself.

You'll be able to fetch the nightly build directly on your phone so you can enjoy the incomplete, unfinished, slow and buggy VLC.

I did little effort to solve this types of problem here VLC player Android

How actual these words are?
Is Android version of VLC buggy and slow today?
