Hello one and all,
What's the trick to getting win32codecs to install and work with
vlc on amd64?
Any wikis?
I cannot seem to get VLC to compile in win32codecs on an amd64...
Yes I realize that 'win32' and amd64 are different arches, but,
surely there is a solution for this? Maybe not just with
vlc but every app that can work with win32codes on amd64?
My understanding is that win32codec is generally not 64bit safe, but
they'd be fine on amd64 if you're running your OS as 32bit.
Close. You can't use win32codecs on amd64 at all, unless you are using a 32 bit
binary program with them. Simple as that. So VLC cannot use 32 bit binary
codecs, unless someone made a vlc 32-bit binary and put it in the tree.
