Install VLC 3.x.x\n\n2. In a Pharo 11 image\n\n```st\nMetacello new\n  baseline: 'VLC';\n  repository: 'github://badetitou/Pharo-LibVLC';\n  load.\n```\n\n\u003e You should be able to execute `VLCLibrary uniqueInstance getVersion`\n\n### Linux\n\nIf you work on linux, please check that `libvlc` and `libvlccore` are in your path.\nTo do so, you can execute `whereis libvlc` and `whereis libvlccore`.\n\nIf the `whereis` command return something like:\n\n- `libvlccore: /usr/lib/libvlccore.so` → OK\n- `libvlccore: ` → It means you didn't install correctly the libraries, or you used snap.\n- `libvlccore: /usr/lib/libvlccore.so.x` → It means you've installed a specific version of the library. To use it with pharo please create a symbolic link without the \".x\" → `ln -s /usr/lib/libvlccore.so.x /usr/lib/libvlccore.so`\n\nIf you used snap to install vlc, the path might be ` '/snap/vlc/current/usr/lib'`\n\n### Windows\n\nSimply install the last version of VLC and it should work.\n\n## Quick example\n\n```st\nvlc := VLCLibrary uniqueInstance createVLCInstance.\n\"do not use accentuated characters for the path\"\nmedia := vlc createMediaFromPath: '/my/file/path.mp3'.\nmediaPlayer := VLCLibrary uniqueInstance mediaPlayerNewFromMedia: media.\nmediaPlayer play\n```\n\nOr using a media list.\n\n```st\ninstance := VLCLibrary uniqueInstance createVLCInstance.\n \nmedia := instance createMediaFromPath: '/home/badetitou/Musique/Coda.mp3'.\nmediaList := instance createMediaList.\nmediaList addMedia: media.\n\nmediaListPlayer := instance createMediaListPlayer.\nmediaListPlayer mediaList: mediaList.\nmediaListPlayer mediaList.\nmediaListPlayer play\n```\n\n## Documentation\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpharo-ffi%2Fpharo-libvlc","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpharo-ffi%2Fpharo-libvlc","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpharo-ffi%2Fpharo-libvlc/lists"}
