   Hi,

   I also vote for the HOW-TO python-binding compilation on windows (yhiis work fine on linux but not on windows as describe on the wiki)

   thanks!

   Not yet, because I have never compiled them so far… I will try when I have time.

   Which means, not very soon.

   Hi Jean-Baptiste,
   Thank you for the updated HOW-TO. Are there any plans to include compiling Python bindings for Windows as part of this HOW-TO? I tried enabling the option to build it on CYGWIN, but it fails because libvcl_tag_t is undefined in vlc_mediadescriptor.c
   Thanks,

   –disable-mkv should work for you

   Hi :
   I follow the guide to compile VLC .
   but stopped at build libmkv_plugin .
   there are some link error such as:
   /usr/win32/lib/libebml.a(MemIOCallback.o):MemIOCallback.cpp:(.text+0x33c): undef
   ined reference to std::basic\_ostream<char, std::char\_traits<char> >& std::\_\_ost ream\_insert<char, std::char\_traits<char> >(std::basic\_ostream<char, std::char\_tr aits<char> >&, char const*, int)' /usr/win32/lib/libebml.a(MemIOCallback.o):MemIOCallback.cpp:(.text+0xd5c): undef ined reference to std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits >& std::__ost
   ream_insert<char, std::char_traits >(std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_tr
   aits >&, char const*, int)'
