Hi, Dear VideoLAN team,
I also want to change VLC and debug it, I met the same problem to build VLC
using VC 6.0. Would you please give us some suggestions?
Thanks.

Dear Gildas,
Thanks for your reply!
I successfully built VLC (0.5.0) using cygwin and it is great! But now I
want to debug and modify some parts of the VLC. (I try to prevent VLC
from
dropping whole frame in case of packet loss. And I have no programming
experience in Linux.)
Yes, I tried the newest version of VLC (0.5.1). Under the root
directory,
there is a MSVC directory, in which are there *.dsp files and config.h .
But none of them automatically load source files into the workspace of
VC++. Could you give me some hints of how to use these *.dsp files? And
what kind of extra efforts to build VLC using vc++? Thanks a lot!
