VLCKit IOS 377MB, smaller?

[guun]

hi,
i tried to compile vlc kit and the lib has over 377mb after compiling.
i saw that the vlc binary itself only has 22megabytes. How can i reduce the vlckit"

The libavcodec has 40 mb for one architecture. (arm7, arm7s, arm764)
From vlckit i need only the MobileVLCKit. No other things.

I need only a mpeg4 codec for my local app.


- thanks for any information

There is nothing for you to do. Just link the framework and Xcode will automatically trim and shrink it to the size you know from our own app. Sounds a bit scary, but it isn't

What is the expected size after Xcode has shrink it down ?

I get apps with 150Mo and suppose around 30-50Mo come from a normal app. This make the VLC addon around +100Mo.
Is this correct ?

That's not normal. VLC for iOS itself links against this library among other things (like 10 additional libraries plus a lot of artwork and UI code) and is 32 MB.
