OK, I’ve compiled and installed as per instructions above, and have selected for audio the “bcm2835 ALSA Default Device” option and for video the “OpenMAX IL Video Output” option.
Opening a native MP4 video file, I do get sound, however no video output. I tried a few other settings for video, still the same, no video output at all with the latest compiled VLC program, of which I have downloaded the latest source code today. With the OMXplayer, I can play MP4 video files.
Have I missed anything here?
