README.MingGW

For compiling the windows version of DVBcut, you need

- MingGW and MSYS 
- QT-3 for windows (http://qtwin.sourceforge.net/qt3-win32). The files
  must be located in ../qt-3 (relative to this file).

Optionally for 2sec-audio playback one needs

- libraries libmad.a, liba52.a (from package a52dec) and libao.a
  installed under /usr/local.  These can easily be built/installed from
  source packages by doing the usual "./configure; make; make install",
  libao needs to be V0.8.8 or newer and "./configure --disable-shared"
  to get a static library.

Newer DVBcut versions (>v0.5.4) also require

- libmpeg2.a (from mpeg2dec) installed under /usr/local (which also
  compiles easily from source).

After adapting the path to your mingw installation in ./import/stdlib.h
simply launch "./mingw.sh" to compile DVBcut.

For playing video, you will need MPlayer 1.0rc1 for Windows
(http://www.mplayerhq.hu). You will also need the DirectX header
files for mingw (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/dx7headers.tgz).

Note: If you want to be able to play files >2.4G, replace off_t with
off64_t in all MPlayer sources and use _lseeki64() instead of lseek()
in stream_files.c.

Compile MPlayer with

	./configure --disable-gui --charset=noconv --enable-directx
	make
	make install

Precompiled mplayer binaries with large file support (and other stuff)
can be downloaded from http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php.
Precompiled DVBcut binaries for Windows are available at
