Running vlc 1.0.2 compiled from alien slackbuilds fail

After compiling and installing vlc 1.0.2 from alien's slackbuilds I get these messages after trying to run vlc (the program window does not show up at all):

Code:

[0x62c698] main libvlc error: no memcpy module matched "any"
[0x711a48] main interface error: no interface module matched "hotkeys,none"
[0x711a48] main interface error: no suitable interface module
[0x62c698] main libvlc error: interface "hotkeys,none" initialization failed
[0x711de8] main interface error: no interface module matched "inhibit,none"
[0x711de8] main interface error: no suitable interface module
[0x62c698] main libvlc error: interface "inhibit,none" initialization failed
[0x711af8] main interface error: no interface module matched "screensaver,none"
[0x711af8] main interface error: no suitable interface module
[0x62c698] main libvlc error: interface "screensaver,none" initialization failed
[0x62c698] main libvlc error: option drawable-xid does not exist
[0x711e08] main interface error: no interface module matched "signals"

[0x62c698] main libvlc error: interface "signals" initialization failed
[0x711e08] main interface error: no interface module matched "globalhotkeys,none"

The pre-built package seems to work, but that does not contain all the codecs, that is, I get this message when I try to encode ogg->mp3:

Code:

[0xddecc8] main input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called
[0xe38e58] avcodec encoder error: cannot find encoder MPEG Audio layer 1/2/3
*** Your FFMPEG installation is crippled.   ***
*** Please check with your FFMPEG packager. ***
*** This is NOT a VLC media player issue.   ***
[0xdda3f8] stream_out_transcode stream out error: cannot find audio encoder (module:any fourcc:mp3 )

Anyone have any ideas what went wrong with my build?

Are you running 64bit with multilib?

Sure, and because of that I changed

Code:

ARCH=${ARCH:-"i486"}

to

Code:

ARCH=${ARCH:-"x86_64"}

in the build script (and also opted to not have the plugins built). That shouldn't really be the problem I think.

I was having the same problem with 1.0.1. The best I could figure from the logs is that the build was picking up some of the 32bit libraries in /usr/lib which was causing the errors since VLC was excepting the 64bit libraries. I removed the multilib packages and re-ran the build and it worked fine. It might work for you too, cant be certain though.

Thanks for the tip, I might try it. As for now, I am using ffmpeg for the conversion (which didn't have any problems compiling...)

If you want a pre-built VlC package with full MP3 encoding capability, get it from http://slackware.org.uk/3rd-party/al...ackbuilds/vlc/

The packages I host in the US (like, on http://slackware.com/~alien/) don't contain code that has patent/copyright issues, because I do not want to risk patent claims. The UK server does not have these restrictions.
