Ok, i'm trying to run my box as a router, but also as a video frontend.
I tried mythtv, and freevo, not what i want.
I'm now trying to use VLC to stream media from my winXP computer to a VLC running on my xbox.
oki, to be honnest, it doesn't work AT ALL.
so, i got somes questions, for you, gurus
Is anyone having installed, run, or tried to do it under gentoox ?
Have anyone encoutered problems installing VLC or running it ?
Does anyone knows why emerge vlc need to install mozilla 1.7.3 ?
and anyone knows how to configure or/and setup VCL under gentoox ?
ok, thx for reading, and answering.
VideoLan Client (VLC)

You can stop it compiling mozilla by doing
Code: Select all
mkdir /etc/portage
echo media-video/vlc\ -mozilla >> /etc/portage/package.use
emerge vlc
If you keep an open mind, will your brain fall out?
it's ok for mozilla, thanks, but it's too late
(3days compiling, but done!)
my question where more about vlc, and it's plugins,
do i need more library, like qt, or wxwindows, etc...
because vlc is installed fine, but erroneous when running:
------ FIXED i was running this from screen
etc... , everything runs fine, finally !

I'm trying to get my xbox to play most media files and most importantly I want it to play .iso and .img dvd images. XBMC claims to do this but it doesn't. I've been running Gentoo on my proliant server for ages, so I've installed GentooX mainly coz I know vlc plays the files I want to play, wxwindows is sort of needed since I'd like an interface a bit more user friendly than the console interface.
The first emerge failed miserably so I installed Gentoox home 4 and set the USE flags I wanted:
wxwindows didn't emerge so to be sure everything was up to date:
Confident that this would work I started a "emerge wxGTK" with the same error I got days ago before updating world:
This is the end of my attention span if I don't get any input on how to adress this.
Any Ideas on a userfriendly software to play most media files and mainly .iso .ima dvd image files other than vlc?
Any ideas on how to emerge wxGTK?
