[vlc] Re: Cross Compile VLC for mips32

[Arthur Chiu]

Hi, thanks for your reply. The function that prints this error message out
is actually the "Read" function in <VLC-0.8.2>/modules/access/file.c, around
line 404 or so. It uses a function call "read", which is defined by the C
function "fread", which reads from a file stream to a buffer pointed by the
pointer passed in. Seems like it is returning a -1, meaning read failed. I
haven't find what function calls this "Read" function in file.c yet though.
Here's a more detailed log when I ran VLC.

The same file can be played by vlc-0.8.1 (on an x86 machine though) which is
downloaded directly through yum. So I wouldn't assume VLC-0.8.2 is broken
would it? Thanks a lot.

Cheers,

Arthur
