vlc, with opengl and xvideo?

[pelle.k]

I've managed to compile vlc-trunk from svn with vc1 and some other stuff, but i cant get OpenGL, an xvideo output whatever i do. I thought i would be enough to --enable-opengl --enable-glx --enable-xvideo ...?
Suggestions anyone?

I have the same problem with the 0.8.4 version. It's really annoying not to have the opengl output, since the fullscreen display gets really pixelated with any other output module.

--enable-opengl and --enable-glx are enabled at default, so that is not what causes this problem (I tried both).

Perhaps some lib we're missing?

EDIT: could this (from ./configure output) has anything to with this?

I was also having compilation problems (with stepmania) because /usr/include/GL/gl.h and GL/glext.h are missing. I'm guessing that they should be part of libgl1-mesa-dev. I stole the two headers from my Gentoo installation (from /usr/lib/opengl/ati/include in that install), and my compilation worked. If you guys would like, I can post them, but eventually this will get fixed, I think, cause it's a pretty serious issue with that package.

The headers are in mesa-common-dev.
