@mumuri: on code en php, passe par une moulinette qui génère du HTML statique. Donc 99% des gens ne passent jamais par le php.

quand tu dis contenus statique, c’est que vous avez un script php qui génére une version statique du site html ou que vous avez un script php (type spip) qui met en cache les pages si elles ne le sont pas déjà. En gros, est ce qu’une personne passe par php pour arriver à une page de votre site ou juste par le serveur web?

A very good year!
But I have a little problem. I wish work on VLMC, so I must compile both vlc and vlmc.
I run on ubuntu karmic 9.10
I have cloned vlc from vlc.git && vlmc from vlmc.git
I must disable some options because libraries not found, so, after I configure with

./configure —prefix=/usr —enable-snapshot —enable-debug —enable-dbus-control —enable-musicbrainz —enable-shared-libvlc —enable-mozilla —enable-lirc —enable-live555 —with-live555-tree=extras/live —enable-x264 —with-x264-tree=extras/x264-trunk —enable-shout —enable-taglib —enable-v4l —enable-cddax —enable-dvb —enable-vcdx —enable-realrtsp —enable-xvmc —enable-svg —enable-dvdread —enable-dc1394 —enable-dv —enable-theora —enable-faad —enable-twolame —enable-real —enable-flac —enable-tremor —with-ffmpeg-mp3lame —with-ffmpeg-faac —disable-quicktime —enable-dirac —enable-skins2 —enable-qt4 —enable-ncurses —enable-aa —enable-caca —enable-esd —disable-portaudio —enable-jack —enable-xosd —enable-galaktos —disable-goom —enable-ggi —disable-cddax —disable-vcdx

it seems good, but when I make, I obtain:

CCLD libx264_plugin.la
/usr/bin/ld: /home/pierre/vlc/extras/x264-trunk/libx264.a(common.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1’ can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

Hi,

I find this very useful. I'm trying to build the latest VLC under ubuntu Hardy, but what I really want is vlc-nox as I'm only using it in a server environment.

What's the best way to build vlc for that environment?

Right now I'm getting an error

checking for XCB_SHM... configure: error: Package requirements (xcb-shm) were not met:

No package 'xcb-shm' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XCB_SHM_CFLAGS
and XCB_SHM_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Thanks for your help

This actually fixed all of the issues I had with VLC 0.9.9a under Jaunty. Sure it took me almost an hour from start to finish, but it's worth it with Netbook Remix.
Separate windows for video and control when everything is maximized gets to be a severe pain.
This worked flawlessly for me, with the use of the revision posted by uux. Thanks!

Hey jb,

Did try "ogl" and other available outputs, all results the same...limited fullscreen window size 800x624.

Jaunty-beta available as of a few days ago, installed it, ran you're command set, and "fullscreen" works out-of-the-box. So, does appear that alpha was deficient in some way. Some issues still remain but of little concern atm, at least I can work w "git" the way it is. Again, thanks for the compile method, beautiful stuff!

Hey jb,

Did the whole process over again today: clean jaunty-a6 install, then ran your command set. After compile finished without error, used only the default qt interface, cli from the build directory.

1) monitor resolution 1360x768 pixels.
2) viceo displays fine in default gui, used several different *.avi files.
3) enabling fullscreen (button or doubleclick on vout), a second window appears, measured 800x624 pixels, no borders, no titlebar, playing video. When buttoned or doubleclicked again, this window quits and video goes to default gui.
4) when mousing over this window in item 3, controller appears at the bottom.center of monitors native resolution display as should, outside of the actual video window, which never fills the monitors display.
5) only related messages that appear, which don't show up as colored text error/warnings:

Hey jb,

Just discovered this page yesterday, ran the above instructions on a fresh "jaunty-alpha6 install, and to my surprise all went very well. Never compiled vlc for 'nix before and had many failed compiles in "xp", way back when, so figured doing it on 'nix would be a bad joke, but...as "make" took 14 minutes (no errors, pre-make took at least twice that), so, your method cranked and the finished product accepted skins...YEOW!!!

Discovered that the default qt4 and skin interface won't display fullscreen, tho initial embedded displays work fine in both. Fullscreen displays an seperate "X11" (I think) window only, from the default/skins interface, never goes fullscreen, and "zoom" feature appears faulty. Some other issues noted but insignificant at this point.

Have also an "arch-install" running "git" which plays nicely in default but won't take skins...RATS! You can prolly guess am doing this for skin development, and having a working vlc-1.0 version would be sweet, as skins work well in "9.8a", and a leg up for the near future would require "1.0x". Any thoughts/pointers/hints appreciated...

About the failing 'make install':

I compiled VLC-git with the following additional configure options (add the two additional options to the second-to-last command from the HowTo above):

../configure --disable-nls --enable-qt4 --prefix=/opt/vlc --exec-prefix=/usr

Afterwards 'sudo make install' should finish fine and VLC will be startable from any directory by just typing 'vlc' into the terminal. It will not be necessary anymore to run ./vlc from the build directory, and actually, the bloated 400MB git-directory can be removed. VLC seems to run fine now and also appears to find everything it needs to run and work, as opposed to installing it without those extra options, where normally VLC wouldn't even start right afterwards.. Anyway, I didn't do too extensive testing so far...

Also, VLC now starts much faster, almost instantly. When run from the build directory before installing, it always took some seconds for VLC to start up, at least on my machine.

There's still one feature missing, though:
VLC installation will not put a VLC entry to the Gnome application menu. This has to be put there manually, if desired.

I assume that only one of the two additional options might be necessary, but as building takes too damn long, I'm not gonna test that now.

Hope that helps anyone who doesn't like having to keep a ~400MB directory in his $HOME just to be able to run the latest version of VLC.

Have a nice Sunday.
uux

PS: Oh, one thing I forgot to mention : before installing, I removed any other VLC version from the system. I'm not sure if this is necessary, but well, just in case.

i think he was refering to all the commands. The && actualy separate commands, and are interpreted as "if" statements.

Basically in:

mkdir build && cd build && ../configure --disable-nls --enable-qt4

you are saying:

if make build is successfull, then execute:

cd build

After that, if cd build is successfull, execute:

../configure

and so on. So 16aR was actualy right :P

Hi JBK,

thank you very much for this HowTo! It was very helpful.

One thing, though:
The first command seems to need another sudo for the second part of the command, like this:

sudo apt-get build-dep vlc && apt-get install libtool build-essential automake1.10 git-core

Otherwise, it wouldn't install, at least it didn't for me.

Howto build VLC 1.0.0-git in Ubuntu in less than 5 commands. - tqft

When did the build instruction change?

Particularly the use of the build dir? But no matter I finally seem to have recovered (after deleting everything thinking I had screwed the git repo - twice).

x264 question: the prev build instructions on your blog
http://www.jbkempf.com/blog/post/20...
and the current wiki instructions
http://wiki.videolan.org/Git#Gettin...
$ git clone git://git.videolan.org/x264.git
Where should the x264 repo end up? as a separate dir or in the same folder as vlc?
I haven't done the x264 bit yet - am I going to miss much?

Thanks

VLC 1.0 and VideoLAN for 2009 - Vincent

If there is a new release, can I have this as my wishlist

1. Can you save the audio setting (i.e. Audio Channel: Left, Right, Both). I tried to use VLC to play Karaoke File and most of the time they encode the non-singer audio track to Left channel. I can't enjoy singing using VLC as it reset the audio channel to both everytime a new file being played.

If you can do that it is a big favourite program for me.

Thanks.

VLC 1.0 and VideoLAN for 2009 - claude3

claude3 — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 22:59:05 +0100

I have bought a new PC lately with Windows Vista, and I cannot read dvd from other zones than zone 2 any more ; I have no picture and the sound is horrible. With windows XP, VLC allowed me to watch DVD from every zone.. Will the new version of VLC solve this pb ? Will it be possible to play DVD from every zone with the new VLC version ?
Thanks.

You really should ask on the forum and redo the activation...

I am just not sure whether it is about playTarget and not addTarget.
