==============================

I may have to install some vlc plugins to play mp3 and m3u files, can you please help which plugins I need to install and how to modify local.conf file?

Thanks,

Smit.

Hello Smit Panchal,

I think the VLC player recipe does not include codecs, so you would need to provide these separately. You have the licenses set, but I’m not sure if your image is providing the codec packages and if VLC is being able to access them.

I’m not sure if there is a codec package, let me check. Otherwise you would need to add the codec files manually.

Regards,

Hello,

Thanks for reply.

I found out that MPEG plugin support was not enabled in the vlc, so I manually added that part to the local.conf file and finally was able to play the mp3 file.

Changes:

PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-vlc = " mad"
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-vlc = " gnutls"
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-vlc = " mkv"
RDEPENDS_vlc = "libmad"

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " libmad"

Thanks,
Smit.
