Thanks Rico and "Kevin DAGNEAUX <kevin.dagne...@fiitelcom.fr>"
Ok -- I've done that!
Now if I do the below command I only get one line and the command exit
with 1:
$ cvlc output.mp3; echo $?
VLC media player 3.0.7 Vetinari (revision 3.0.7-0-g86cee31099)
1
Where output.mp3 is a file that is playable.
I'm assuming that the above is expected because the
codecs/modules/libraries that are required are missing.
If I'm correct, what is the best way to know what I need?
