			=General:
			- I would suggest a sample dir structure:

			~/vlc
			~/vlc/downloads
			~/vlc/scripts
			~/vlc/SVN
			~/vlc/SVN/x264-trunk
			~/vlc/SVN/vlc-trunk
			~/vlc/SVN/ffmpeg-trunk

			reason: '~' always exists, even in the broken-nest installs. No need to start talking about c:\downloads and c:\cygwin\adminstrator\home\whatever. One work dir: ~/vlc

			= I would suggest making this document more intuitive by putting the reccomended build way in one page, and putting all 'optional' things in a side document (for example the way to download a nightly as alternative to download from SVN)

			= Running through the document step by step my comments:

			= Its called pkg-config not pkgconfig

			= Reorder: I would first describe the reccommended option to download latest (SVN) then below that, add some OPTIONAL: paragraphs. Now its the 'optional' way fisrt.

			= The SVN section suggests to make a 'scripts' directory and then copy the created scripts to the 'root' directory. I would suggest adding a 'cd /home/admin/vlc/SVN' command to the scripts instead.

			= While it lists 'gcc-3.4.5' as the right version, this one isn't available. Additionally, the prebuilt contrib-20060730-win32-bin-gcc-3.4.5-only.tar.bz2 (example) should also work with 3.4.4 so maybe this should be renamed.

			= Contrib downloads to some directory fine, but later on it says 'copy to /home/administrator.. why not directly cd to ~/vlc/downloads and untar from there

			= Suggested addition to AMR directory unpacking:
			- This results in dirs like: 'C:\cygwin\home\Administrator\ffmpeg-trunk\libavcodec\amr' that just contain files, no subdirs.'

			= Reasons should be added for enabling QT. (extra work eek).. so mention the reason. (better interface?)

			= The 'Configure script for compiling VLC' is mentioned too early. I think that you should FIRST mention the configuring of ffmpeg/x264 and when those are done (and compiled!) then start to talk about main vlc. Chronology!

There appears to be a good chance that if you follow these instructions you will not be able to easily run your compiled program. The easy fix is to delete (or rename) vlc.exe.manifest and then you should be able to run your compiled code.

Any chance we can get this added to the instructions?
