I hope this doesn’t come across as a basic question, but I’m trying to understand how VLC gets integrated into other applications by examining source code. I remember reading somewhere that Miro incorporates VLC functionality or libraries into their media player. But when I look through the Miro codebase, I can’t seem to locate any obvious VLC references or imports. Can someone explain what approach Miro takes to incorporate VLC functionality? I’m curious about the technical implementation details and why the VLC integration might not be immediately visible in the source files. Thanks in advance for any insights you can share.
i’ve looked into it, and yeah, Miro mostly relies on GStreamer. they might use VLC through a plugin for compatibility, but GStreamer is their core. if u check the config scripts, you’ll see the GStreamer deps, which are way more prominent than anything related to libVLC.
