VLC media player is a free and open source media player and multi-
|
|
media framework written by the VideoLAN project. VLC is a portable
|
|
multimedia player, encoder, and streamer supporting many audio and
|
|
video codecs and file formats as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various
|
|
streaming protocols. It is able to stream over networks and to
|
|
transcode multimedia files and save them into various formats.
|
|
|
|
This build aims to support as many options as possible using
|
|
the SlackBuilds listed in the REQUIRES field of the vlc.info file.
|
|
No script changes are necessary to include particular options; if they
|
|
are detected at build time, they will be included. Conversely if
|
|
optional packages are not available at build time, vlc will generally
|
|
continue to build with a reduced feature set.
|
|
|
|
Support for Wayland is a special case. It is not supported by default
|
|
but can be enabled setting the WAYLAND environment variable to "yes"
|
|
when running the SlackBuild e.g. WAYLAND=yes sh vlc.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
By default, the vlc runtime is not able to be run as root. This
|
|
security feature may be side stepped by building vlc with the RUNASROOT
|
|
environment variable set e.g.
|
|
RUNASROOT=yes sh vlc.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
Playing of AV1 encoded video is supported when either of SBo's
|
|
multimedia/aom or libraries/dav1d packages is detected when vlc
|
|
is built. One of these is expected to become required in a future
|
|
release. Some versions of the automatically detected optional aom
|
|
package are incompatible with this version of vlc and in this case
|
|
the build will fai. This can be avoided by setting the AOM environment
|
|
variable to "no" e.g.
|
|
AOM=no sh vlc.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
Please advise the maintainer to suggest support for any further
|
|
options.
