[vdr] Re: Linker error compiling vdr

[René Bartsch <rene@bartschnet.de>]

Hi,

the libdvdread files directly have to be in the /DVD directory, not in
/DVD/libdvdread/ !!!
So, unpack libdvdread and rename the main directory "libdvdread/" to "DVD/"
and copy it into the main directory of your VDR software parallel to the DVB
and VDR directory.
