primarily developed for Mac OS X, though it should be easy to adapt to
other operating systems.
To use it, first type :
To use it, first in the contrib directory, type :

Customize config.mak if you need type, then you need to choose between
Customize config.mak if you need to, then you need to choose between
building from source (can take a long time but is easily customizable)
and fetching a pre-compiled binary package. Either type 'make src'
or 'make bin'.
or 'make bin' (also from the contrib directory).
Once the contribs are built, you can start building VLC. VLC's bootstrap
and configure scripts will automatically detect the contrib directory,
but you still need to specify which plug-ins you want to build (though
it is unnecessary to add --with-* or --with-*-tree). For instance my
configure line is :
./configure --disable-x11 --disable-xvideo --disable-gtk --disable-sdl --enable-ffmpeg --with-ffmpeg-mp3lame --enable-mad --enable-libdvbpsi --enable-a52 --enable-dvdplay --enable-faad --enable-vorbis --enable-theora --enable-ogg --enable-slp --enable-flac --enable-libmpeg2 --enable-mkv --enable-speex --enable-debug
Then for Darwin, 'make' will build the VLC.app application and copy the
contrib libs to VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/lib. The application is ready.
Once the contribs are built, you can start building VLC.
See: http://developers.videolan.org/vlc/osx-compile.html
for more details on that.
Happy hacking.
