The VideoLAN Forums

After following the instructions on https://wiki.videolan.org/VLCKit/ under the section "Building the framework for iOS", I always end up with the following output

[info] Building vlc
[info] Building libvlc for Apple embedded OS style 'AppleTV'
[info] Using aarch64 with SDK version 9.1
usage: dirname path
SDKROOT not specified, assuming /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/AppleTVOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/AppleTVOS9.1.sdk
[info] Building tools
./build.sh: line 40: pushd: //extras/tools: No such file or directory

I have been trying this for quite some time now. Earlier when I failed with this I just resorted over getting a already build framework, but turns out that the framework was not bitcode enable and I got problem creating the IPA for my app.

Any help fixing this issue would be appreciated, else the end resort could be if someone could provide me with framework for tvOS with bitcode enabled.

Thanks in advance

A while ago i did this almost daily due to playback issues when streaming live-tv from a STB over HTTP connections.
But due to a business trip I did not try for a while - but till about 2 weeks ago all worked fine.

I finally used a backport. I switched to VLCKit commit of end of december - which was most performant but had some crash issues. Then I had to backport small things (new live555 module and small fixes in VLCKit) and then was able to build TVVLCKit. According to my beta-testers via TestFlight this was the most satisfying version of it,so I used this backport build inside my App and that one is finally in the store.

I could share the library in case you can't get that backport building, but my Internet bandwidth is quite slow, so it would take hours to upload the files (~250 MB) anywhere. When you are patient, I can do so, maybe videolan could push it to their nightly FTP.
