- INSTALL file for the Windows 2k/XP/Vista/Seven version of the VLC media player
- Running VLC
- ===========
- If you are using a binary release from videolan.org or if you have already built
- VLC (see below), just run 'vlc.exe'.
- You can also run VLC from a dos command box, in which case you'll be able
- to use the command line arguments. You can obtain a list of these command
- line arguments by typing 'vlc --help' or 'vlc --help --advanced'.
- To store a debug log of the current VLC session, you can use
- 'vlc -vvv --extraintf=logger'. You will end-up with a vlc-log.txt file in
- your current directory.
- Additional documentation is available at http://www.videolan.org/doc/ and http://wiki.videolan.org/.
- Building VLC from the source code
- =================================
- If you want to build VLC from sources, you can do it in several ways:
- - On GNU/Linux, using the mingw32 cross-compiler.
- This method is preferred over all the others.
- - natively on Windows, using MSYS+MINGW (www.mingw.org)
- (MSYS is a minimal build environment to compile Unixish projects under
- windoze. It provides all the common Unix tools like sh, gmake...)
- Please note that the gettext utilities are not included in the default
- MSYS/MINGW packages so you won't be able to build VLC with i18n support.
- UNSUPPORTED METHODS
- -------------------
- - natively on Windows, using cygwin (www.cygwin.com) with or without the
- POSIX emulation layer. This is the preferred way to compile vlc if you want
- to do it on Windows.
- Read http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew to have a complete HOWTO
- - natively on Windows, using Microsoft Visual Studio. This will not work.
- Getting the right compiler tools
- ================================
- - cross-compiling with mingw32:
- You first need to download a GNU/Linux cross-compiler version of mingw32.
- For Debian GNU/Linux users, you can use the mingw32, mingw32-binutils and
- mingw32-runtime packages.
- For Fedora users, you can use mingw-binutils, mingw-gcc-core, mingw-gcc-g++
- For MingW and Cygwin, please refer to our Wiki:
- - http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileMSYS
- - http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwin
- Getting the additional libraries
- =================================
- VLC depends on many other libraries to provide some features like most of the codecs.
- Usually, you don't want to compile those by yourself, so use pre-compiled ones.
- * We also provide a package with all the libraries already compiled so it is
- actually really easy to compile a full-featured version of vlc (these compiled
- libraries will only work with mingw or cygwin):
- http://download.videolan.org/pub/testing/win32/contrib-200xxxxx-win32-bin-gcc-x.x.x-only.tar.bz2
- (Check out for more recent versions at the same location).
- All you need to do is extract it in your root directory (the include files
- and libraries will be put in /usr/win32). You can do this with the following
- command:
- tar xjvf contrib-20060330-win32-bin-gcc-3.4.5-only.tar.bz2 -C /
- Please note the "-C /".
- * An automated way of building the contrib libraries is provided in
- extra/contrib. It will download, configure and build the libraries.
- See the extras/contrib/README for more info.
- Configuring the build
- =====================
- Once you've got all the files you need in place, you need to configure the
- build with the `./configure' script.
- I'll assume that you are using the pre-compiled 3rd party libraries we are
- providing and that they are in /usr/win32.
- If you are cross-compiling from Debian, you can use this:
- sh extras/package/win32/configure-mingw.sh
- If you are compiling with MSYS/MINGW, then you can use this:
- sh extras/package/win32/configure-msys.sh
- If you are using cygwin, you should build VLC without the POSIX emulation layer.
- Use this:
- sh extras/package/win32/configure-cygwin.sh
- See `./configure --help' for more information.
- Actually Compiling the VLC source
- =================================
- Once configured, to build VLC, just run `make'.
- Once the compilation is done, you can either run VLC directly from the source
- tree or you can build self-contained VLC packages with the following
- 'make' rules:
- make package-win32-base
- will create a subdirectory named vlc-x.x.x with all the binaries
- 'stripped' (ie. without any debugging symbols).
- make package-win32-zip
- Same as above but will package the directory in a zip file.
- make package-win32
- Same as above but will also create an auto-installer package. You will need
- to have NSIS installed in its default location for this to work.
- Well done, now you're ready to use VLC!
