<p>Nekresh: Correct git repository url</p> <hr /> <div>This page will help you compile '''VLC for WinRT'''<br /> <br /> ==Development Environment==<br /> <br /> To develop VLC for WinRT, you would need to have:<br /> * Windows 8.1<br /> * Visual Studio 2013 with Update 2 (or Update 3)<br /> * Windows 8.1 SDK (Recommended)<br /> * Latest version of Git<br /> * Lots of patience :D<br /> <br /> ==Get the source==<br /> <br /> You can clone the VLC for WinRT git repository<br /> <br /> git clone https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-winrt.git<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Get libVLC source==<br /> <br /> ====Packaged 7zip file====<br /> You can download vlc.7z from [http://people.videolan.org/~hugo/vlc-Win32.7z here]. Extract the contents of vlc.7z and copy the contents to vlc folder of winrt source code<br /> <br /> ====Cross Compiling====<br /> If you feel adventurous, you can try cross-compiling libVLC for WinRT. Refer to the [https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-winrt README] file in the source folder for more information<br /> <br /> ==Build and Deploy==<br /> * Open the VLC_WinRT solution in app/VLC_WINRT.sln<br /> * Open Package.appxmanifest, and generate a test certificate. More information can be found in the [https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-winrt/blob/master/README README] file in the source folder<br /> * Click on Build Solution and then Deploy<br /> <br /> ==Additional Notes==<br /> * If building fails with lots of errors referring to Windows SDK headers, installing Windows 8.1 SDK usually helps<br /> * It helps to right click the specific project (eg: Windows 8.1 project ) and then click deploy rather than trying to deploy the whole solution</div>
