本文討論如何在Ubuntu系統上交叉編譯VLC源代碼。首先，請啓動終端，然後執行以下命令：
-
$sudo
apt-get install gcc-mingw32 mingw32-binutils -
$git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git -
$ mkdir -p contrib/win32 -
$ cd contrib/win32 -
$ ../bootstrap --host=i586-mingw32msvc -
$ make prebuilt -
如果是64位系統，你必須執行($ rm -f ../i586-mingw32msvc/bin/moc ../i586-mingw32msvc/bin/uic ../i586-mingw32msvc/bin/rcc),並且安裝qt4-tools -
$cd -(回到vlc源目錄) -
$ ./bootstrap -
$ mkdir win32 && cd win32 -
$ ../extras/package/win32/configure.sh --host=i586-mingw32msvc -
$ make -
make package-win32
