that's exactly why I disabled it - I don't know if it could be patched though - maybe just delete/modify the check(s) in the configure file and see how unstable it actually is?
unfortunately this version didn't have the keybindings configured to default values so you would have to set those to get a gtkdialog to work with xdotool (PawdioConverter seems like a good model to build from)
gtkdialog3 + xdotool
xdotool website
I don't know that it would really be worth it unless you added video conversion via ffmpeg, screen capture(ffmpeg would need to be recompiled to support it) and webcam capture. Would vlc even be the best program for playback? Maybe have different options??

I've been following this Debian thread about this guy who made a small version of VLC, and today he came up with a newer version. Its good reading and good config examples.

I know the trend in puppy is smaller smaller smaller and sometimes this ends up delaying new releases, so I thought I'd give my hand at compiling up a 10.0.1 VLC pet with some unnecessaries stripped away but not really stressing the little stuff.
To that end, I have some questions about your arguments.
Like:
--enable-mostly-builtin
Searching finds that this flag was available in other versions, but in a recent test with the 1.0.1 source, that flag was not in the --help list.
Anyhow, it didn't like enable-gtk and enable-mostly-builtin, also I had to disable NLS because of a "buggy GNU/libc" so I figured okay, disabled that...
Had to kill HAL, DBUS, MTP (not even sure what MTP is), LIBMPEG2, DVB/PSI, Libv4l2, gnutls, libgcrypt, httpd, Live555, GLX, LibVCDInfo, TagLib, HD1000 support, PULSE, XCB, RemoteOSD ......
All that flagging to compile one program...
Anyhow, that was JUST to get configure to stop vomiting up errors, even though it had warnings, and somehow used busybox "wc" wrong... I'm not sure it'll work but time for a pet...
Aaand make gives an error in UTF-8. I'll be posting again in a bit to continue this train of thought spewing out...

So, apparently puppy doesn't have a common library called "iconv" in its glibc or in its own libiconv -- I think if the .h is included it's available then, but I'm NOT sure...
I know that would mean that if this "libiconv" is not on my system it will not compile... but does that also mean said is required on the user's system to run?
Is there a way to merge said library into the VLC package so that when distributed it has it whether or not the user has it?

For some reason 1.0.1 does not have libiconv included automatically, I built it, made a pet (1.5 MB dl woop) and installed it and copied the damn include file to the VLC dirs, got it included and made... got an error about dvdnav so I disabled dvdnav, it apparently won't work with any DVD files...
Getting errors in V4L2, disabling that...
This is getting ANNOYING, apparently VLC will play movies, but not to anywhere we have!...
BTW, does anyone else get regular I/O errors when exiting puppy when loaded from a pup_save.2fs? I've been having it constantly, though the pupsave is written to with each change when the drivebuffer pushes, it just seems odd, it gets IO errors related to output or something? I dunno it only shows for a bit then reboots machine as I told it to.
Anywho, now it's getting an error in file.c, apparently undeclared identifiers are PRETTY COMMON in VLC code. This is getting insane.
I think I'm gonna put a suggestion into VLCs inbox: l2code, kthxbai.
I'm tired of this. This is ridiculous.
EDIT: And No, I couldn't make it comp WIHTOUT iconv, which is insane too.

Well the nearest sikpuppy got was about 95% working with the main bug of mp4a not working....dvd nav, skins, flv etc ok.
I'm not sure whether he intends to go any further with this as I'm sure his experience would be a big help....he has got nearer to sucess than anyone else on puppy.
I don't think the vlc devs are making life easy for anyone

Oh gods, I think I shall be struck down for thinking to myself "You know what I could do with my life? Compile stuff on puppy!"
This is absurd. You know what? I started this like 2 days ago thinking "I need a good media player to play my MP3s, pmusic keeps clunking out on me when it comes to moving to the next in a playlist and keeps replaying the same song over and over again"... And then somehow moved to trying to perform make in the vlc-1.0.1 directory 15 times.
I'm going to XMMS... unless there's another good little mp3 and FLAC player someone can suggest?
EDIT: A few minutes later, my conscience got the best of me and I edited a word in here which might have been offensive.
GUESS WHICH ONE!??!?!
