<sect1><title>The modules</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>VLC uses a modular system, which allows to add easily new fonctions
|
|
and formats. Here is a description of nearly all the VLC
|
|
modules. If you installed VLC through a binary file, you will get
|
|
the default modules. If, however, you want to customize VLC to your
|
|
needs, you will have to compile the VLC from sources.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><emphasis>If you don't intend to compile the VLC and
|
|
want only the regular functions, reading this part is not very
|
|
useful</emphasis>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para> The compilation itself is explained in the next chapter.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If you wish to compile a module which is stated <emphasis>disabled
|
|
by default</emphasis>, you have to launch the configure script with :
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen>
|
|
<prompt>% </prompt><userinput>./configure --enable-module_name </userinput>
|
|
</screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>On the other hand, if you would like to disable a module that is
|
|
<emphasis>enabled by default</emphasis>, you would have to use :</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen>
|

<prompt>% </prompt><userinput>./configure --disable-module_name </userinput>
