Building Video Player Error

Open vincent4v opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

When I try to build the video player, I get this error. Any idea how to fix it? I'm kinda a newbie to CEdev :(

C:\Users\MYUSER\Downloads\ce\CEVidium-master\CEVPLAY>make gfx

CEVidium uses the convpng tool, which was the image conversion tool used back when CEVidium was first made. These days, the CE toolchain uses convimg, which is incompatible with the setup used with convpng. You can get it back by installing any toolchain version from around 2018-2019.

TODO on my end: Figure out how to make it compatible.

Alright, I installed an old version of the tool chain and fixed the folder structure enough to get a compiled program. You probably have to convert and send some videos to the calculator first before it runs though. I included the necessary c libraries as well. CEVidium.zip

Maybe add a note to the readme atleast for the time being? only found out after going through the whole process
