Description Siphi 2006-03-09 11:15:48 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
V4L shouldn't depend on the X lib in the configure script!

Steps to reproduce:
1. run configure script with the option --disable-x
 


Actual results:
the configure output lists the V4L* plugins as unselected


Expected results:
V4L plugins should compile

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
no

I believe the X dependency is there because it's required for the GstXOverlay interface implementation that's provided.
Comment 2 Jan Schmidt 2006-05-06 20:24:30 UTC 
Yes, that's right - X stuff is needed to build gstv4lxoverlay.[ch], but from the makefile, it looks like it is possible to still build it without the Xv support.

I think the report is correct and it should still build in the absence of X, just not with the Xv support.

        * configure.ac:
          Build video4linux plugin even if there's no XVIDEO, just
          without implementing the GstXOverlay interface (#334002).
