Hi
I dont think such step by step tutorial exists. (sadly)
It seems to use cmake so u might need to install that as Qt comes with qmake.
Then you need to read
https://github.com/vlc-qt/vlc-qt/blob/master/BUILDING.md
There is no example for mingw32-make so you need to find out how to specify
it - so it creates a make file that works.

When you have build it and have the dlls.
then you must read
http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-project-qmake-libraries.html
To see how to add them into your project.

Hi
I have never used Cmake so dont know what to write.

But you should show what you write to try build it
and what errors
you get so people here can give advice.

Its like 2 parts.
Part 1: Get /build the DLL(s)
Part 2: use the DLL

So you need to be more informative about what u have done, what happened,
what it wrote (exactly).

Else it pretty impossible unless you strike gold and user did build the vlc lib and can tell.
