Re: [xine-devel] Win32 port

[Tim C. <tc...@au...>]

Oliver,

    The port to Win32 has recently started again. The latest cvs version is
pretty close to being up to date (I haven't  checked it in a week or so and
there have been a huge amount of changes). As James already pointed out the
gui for Windows is very basic and limited. There are some issues with the
DirectX video driver but seems to work on most machines. One limitation is
that you currently need MSVC to build it (This may change in the future (to
MinGW or Cygwin) but I have no current plans to do so). There are also
probably some lingering bugs in the Win32 stuff since it hasn't been used or
tested all that well. I've most recently been looking at redoing the gui
(maybe some skin stuff) but I am no gui expert and have poor artistic
ability.

-Tim
