The vlc plugin code provided is known to work with the 0.9.9
and later releases.

In order to compile the vlc plugin you will need to install
the vlc and libvlc-dev packages.  On Ubuntu Linux, for example,
you can use:

# apt-get install vlc libvlc-dev

On Mac OS X, you have a choice of either using macports to install VLC:

$ sudo port install VLC

which as of VLC 1.0.6 will install the following additional packages:

a52dec faad2 ffmpeg XviD dirac cppunit gmake lame libogg libsdl
xorg-libXext xorg-libX11 xorg-bigreqsproto xorg-inputproto
xorg-kbproto xorg-libXau xorg-xproto xorg-libXdmcp xorg-libxcb
python27 db46 python_select python27 xorg-libpthread-stubs
xorg-xcb-proto libxml2 libxml2 xorg-util-macros xorg-xcmiscproto
xorg-xextproto xorg-xf86bigfontproto xorg-xtrans xorg-libXrandr

libcddb libcdio popt libdca libdvdnav libdvdread libdvdcss libdvdplay
libid3tag libmad libmatroska libebml libmodplug libmpcdec live555 lua
taglib cmake libidn twolame libsndfile

or you may install a VLC binary distribution from videolan.org, and
locate the corresponding VLC sources, and compile the CCN plugin for
VLC against the include files in the VLC sources.
 
Three system-dependent makefiles are provided, Makefile.Linux, Makefile.OSX,
and Makefile.OSX-VLCsrconly

If you have not already compiled the CCN library, do so, then use
the appropriate Makefile to compile the CCN VLC plugin.

The CCN vlc plugin Makefile.Linux and Makefile.OSX make use of the
pkg-config info to locate the necessary vlc include files, and the
correct directory in which to install the vlc access plugins.

The Makefile.OSX-VLCsrconly does not assume that pkg-config is present,
so you must set VLCAPP to where the VLC app has been installed
(typically /Applications/VLC.app) and VLCSRC to where the unpacked
VLC source is present (e.g., /Users/example/Software/vlc-2.0.3)

Note that to VLC, a CCN URI must start ccnx:/// (because of the URI parser in VLC).

In order to build VLC for Android with the CCNx access module, build CCNx for
Android, then follow the VLC instructions for building for Android and
ensure that you can do this without error before you:

	Modify vlc-android/jni/Android.mk to add "-lccnx -lcrypto" to the
		LOCAL_LDLIBS definition
	and place a copy of libccn.a and libcrypto.a built for Android
	as part of the CCNx build in the $(VLC_CONTRIB)/lib directory.
	Modify vlc/modules/access/Modules.am to add the following
		SOURCES_access_ccn = ccn.c
		CFLAGS_access_ccn = -I/var/tmp/ccnx/csrc/include -DVLCPLUGINVER=20200
		LIBS_access_ccn = -lccnx -lcrypto
		libvlc_LTLIBRARIES += libaccess_ccn_plugin.la
	near the other SOURCES_access_xxx definitions.
	Place a copy of ccnx/apps/vlc/ccn.c in the VLC source modules/access/
	directory.
	Redo the VLC android build (sh compile.sh) which should now incorporate
	the CCNx code.
