#10 Not able to compile sc68-vlc plugin

[Florent F]

Hi Benjamin,

I am currently trying to build the sc68-vlc plugin from sc68 master branch.

I'm using the fflament/sc68-build-ubuntu1904 docker image for that.

I can succesfully build and install the sc68 CLI
$ docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/work -w /work fflament/sc68-build-ubuntu1904
$ tools/svn-bootstrap.sh
$ ./configure
$ make

However I haven't been able to build the sc68-vlc plugin
$ cd sc68-vlc
$ autoreconf --install
$ ./configure
This fails, I attached the output of the ./configure command.

Any guidance ?
BTW, is there any frontend you would recommend to listen to sndh files ?

Regards

I attached the dockerfile used to build the fflament/sc68-build-ubuntu1904 image

Hi Florent.
The vlc plugin autothing is a mess at the moment. Plus it's not up-to-date with the latest vlc (3.0). The modifications are trivial.
The best way to compile it is probably to simple compile it manually. For win32/win64 target I usually build a minimal version as static libaries of unice68,file68 (without-ao without-curl), and libsc68. Optionnally adding the replay-rom to file68. For linux using a general build might be better.
The vlc plugin is the best frontend at the moment on my side. As 3rd party solution I've used DeadBeef player on my Android phone it worked nicely.

Thanks for the reply Benjamin. I will try to compile the plugin manually then.

Indeed, deadbeef is pretty nice. Thanks for the info !
