I'm trying to build VLC for Android, and came to the issue, that I can't solve myself:

.././../../../src/posix/thread.c:90:5: warning: #warning Monotonic clock not available. Expect timing issues.

make[4]: *** [posix/thread.lo] Error 1


I've read similiar threads, and tried fixes from there, however it doesn't work for me

Help please.

The official VLC does not support Android, since the official Android does not support POSIX.

You need to use some Android port.

I thought it was supported, since there is article in the official wiki http://wiki.videolan.org/AndroidCompile

Nevertheless, can you please point me at the best (in your opinion) port of VLC for Android ?

Thank you

The one mentioned by the wiki is the official android port of VLC : git://git.videolan.org/vlc-ports/android.git
