-INSTALL file for the Maemo version of the VLC media player
-
-
-Building VLC from source code
-=============================
-
-If you want to build the Maemo version of VLC from the source, you have to
-install the Maemo Software Development Kit as indicated in the Maemo Diablo
-Reference Manual for Maemo 4.1. You can find it from this page:
-http://maemo.org/development/documentation/tutorials/
-
-You have to use the ARMEL target (arm) of the Maemo SDK. The x86 target was
-not tested.
-
-
-Installing autotools
-====================
-
-Once you have a working scratchbox with the Maemo SDK installed and before
-compiling VLC, you must install some additional tools and libraries.
-
-VLC requires automake 1.9 and autoconf 2.61 (or more recent). As of the Diablo
-release, they are not easy to install within the Maemo SDK for Scratchbox.
-The easiest solution is to use those from your Linux distribution _outside_
-Scratchbox (in your native desktop environment). You will also need the
-gettext and libgcrypt development files.
-
-Go to the VLC source code directory, e.g.:
-    cd /scratchbox/users/$(whoami)/home/$(whoami)/vlc
-and run:
-    ./bootstrap
-
-
-Installing correct headers
-==========================
-
-For VLC to compile under the Maemo SDK, you must copy the linux/videodev2.h
-from your Linux distribution into the Scratchbox.
-
-To build the OMAP Frame Buffer video output module, you also need an up-to-date
-asm/arch-omap/omapfb.h (you can find it on google by searching for "omapfb.h").
-
-
-Installing additional libraries
-===============================
-
-Login to Scratchbox. You can also install fribidi, libvorbixidev, libmad and
-other VLC dependencies which you can find in the Maemo extra repositories.
-Add these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list (if not alerady done):
-    deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ diablo free
-    deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ diablo free
-
-Then run:
-    apt-get update
-
-
-FFmpeg (not necessary)
-======================
-
-You should also build FFMPEG. To that end, you can use Debian source package
-as is. Get the ffmpeg-free_0.svn20080206.orig.tar.gz and the Debian diff file
-ffmpeg-free_0.svn20080206-8.diff.gz for example. Decompress them and apply the
-patch.
-
-You will need to alter the debian/rules and debian/control files to remove a
-few dependencies not available in Maemo.
-
-You might have to change the line 3550 of ffmpeg/libavcodec/dsputil.c from
-    DECLARE_ALIGNED_8 (uint64_t, aligned_bak[stride]);
-to
-    uint64_t *aligned_bak[stride];
-to build FFMPEG within Scratchbox.
-
-
-Configuring
-===========
-
-You can run, for example:
-    ./configure --disable-qt4 --disable-skins2 --disable-glx --disable-a52 \
-                --enable-tremor --enable-maemo --enable-omapfb --enable-flac \
-                --enable-debug
-
-
-Building VLC
-============
-
-Just do :
-    make
-
-
-Running VLC
-===========
-
-VLC will not properly run inside the Scratchbox, you must test it directly on
-the target device.
