Linking against libvlc.dll

dolevo

Hi all,

I am trying to run a sample code that I found in the internet. However, whatever I do, I couldn't get it running. It compiles, so I assume that it is linking successfully but I can't get an instance.

I have copied my complete code into DropBox. Could anyone share couple of minutes to have a look where I am making a mistake?

If you put a break-point to the following line, you will see that vlcInstance is set 0x0 after the call, which is not good.
@vlcInstance = libvlc_new(0, NULL);@

"Source code... 1.47Mb":https://www.dropbox.com/s/ebhzoz3hnh745ps/vlc_exp.zip

Thanks a lot.

sorted out. everything is correct but I needed to provide plugins folder under the bin folder where my exe file is located.

Hi,

Do you mean it doesn't start ? Is the dll in a place where it can be found on your program startup ?

If not, you have to modify the PATH in the run panel in QtCreator and add the folder where the dll is

Hope it helps

EDIT: a bit too late... Great you found out ! Don't forget to update the thread's title to solved so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)
