Nick, feel like tackling this? no problem... i'll get right on it. media-libs/libdvbpsi has been added to portage. This is a required dependancy of vls. media-video/vls and media-video/vlms have been added to portage. The only software left is the network tools... but at the behest of the VideoLAN developers... <snip> You should be aware that this server is NOT secure, that means that we are not responsible if you get big troubles with it. Because of this security problems please do not make any binary or packages! </snip> I will not create ebuilds for the network tools. Those packages include non-secure software, unapproved kernel patches, and other fun stuff. libdvdcss is already available in portage. To install vlc with support for encrypted dvds... you must add "dvd" to your USE variables. I have also added libdvbpsi support to vlc by default as well. Make sure you "emerge rsync" before you "emerge vlc" |
VideoLan includes: * vlc: VideoLAN Client; * vls: VideoLAN Server; * vlms: VideoLAN MiniServer; * network: network tools (VLAN-Server and VLAN-Bridge). * libdvdcss: library for decrypting DVDs, used by VLC and VLS. * libdvbpsi: library for parsing Program Specific Information from MPEG and DVB streams, used by VLC and VLS. Of all those, only media-video/vlc
