Hi,

Copy of a post in the forum 
http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=40246

Two problems :

First: Gettext 1.6 is not available on cygwin distrib (must compile)
see http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=39275&p=125216

Second: most *.dll files haven't been renamed by change 'cyg' prefix by 
'lib' in .libs directory, then the vlc.exe is corrupted (6656 bytes ...) and 
when I call ./vlc.exe nothing happens ...

Best regards
