1 INSTALL file for vlc, the VideoLAN Client
7 A typical way to configure vlc is:
9 ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gnome --with-sdl
11 See `./configure --help' for more information.
13 Then, run `make' to build vlc.
15 Here is a shortcut to copy-paste for a complete build:
17 make distclean 2>/dev/null ; ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gnome \
18 --enable-fb --with-glide --with-ggi --with-sdl --enable-esd \
19 --enable-alsa --enable-mga --enable-gtk --enable-qt --enable-xvideo \
22 If you intend to debug stuff, you may want to disable optimizations:
24 make distclean 2>/dev/null ; ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-gnome \
25 --enable-fb --with-glide --with-ggi --with-sdl --enable-esd \
26 --enable-alsa --enable-mga --enable-gtk --enable-qt --enable-xvideo \
27 --disable-optimizatons && make
