Problems building xdvplay

[Mark W. K. <mar...@ho...>]

Hi,
   I set up 1394 on my home PC this weekend:

1) Installed ADS Pyro board
2) Installed 2.2.15 with 1394 support (CVS versions)  - It sees the board.
3) Got gscanbus-0.6 working - It sees the PC and Canon ZR-10 Camera
(Although clicking on camera does NOT produce the pop-up window)
4) Installed dvgrab_latest - It runs and produces an AVI file. (A few X's
along the way. I'd better give it a better place to store the data.)
5) Attempted to install xdvplay.

So far dvgrab seems to be recording an avi file, which I have saved on both
my Linux box and ftp'ed to my Windows box. However, at this point I am
running into some problems:

1) I wanted to install xdvplay. Instructions say to go to the libdv
directory, run fetch_libdv, and then run make. When I run make I find that
all of the ***.d files have paths to files which have 'i486-suse-linux' in
them. My machines are all Redhat, so I have 'i386-redhat-linux' paths on my
machine.

a) Did I miss some configuration step here?
b) I tried quickly changing the paths in a bunch of these files but started
to get more error messages, so I quit.


2) On my Windows box I tried to play the AVI file, but Real Player bombed
out and said 'A General Error has Occurred'. No more information than that.


I know folks have gotten farther than this, so it's probably my mistake.
Anyone know how I might fix these probs?

Thanks,
Mark
