Building for Windows

Please install:

cmake - cmake-3.20.0-windows-x86_64.msi
- Add cmake to the path.
ninja
- Place this in the build directory.
QT
- This package is huge. You also need to make a QT account...
- Check "MSVC 2019 64-bit" and "Qt WebEngine" under QT 5.15.2.
VS2019 Build Tools
- Again this will use a lot of disk space. The installer is small though.
libmpv1
- Place the contents in the build directory, in a subfolder called mpv.
- Move the contents of the include folder to an mpv folder inside the include folder.
- Move the mpv-1.dll to mpv.dll.
WIX

You need to run these commands in git bash.

git clone https://github.com/iwalton3/jellyfin-media-player
cd jellyfin-media-player
mkdir build && cd build
curl -L https://github.com/iwalton3/jellyfin-web-jmp/releases/download/jwc-10.7.2-2/dist.zip > dist.zip
unzip dist.zip

Open the "x86_x64 Cross Tools Command Prompt for VS 2019". cd to the build directory. Run:

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files (x86)\WiX Toolset v3.11\bin
cmake -GNinja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=output -DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=ninja.exe -DQTROOT=C:/Qt/5.15.2/msvc2019_64 -DMPV_INCLUDE_DIR=mpv/include -DMPV_LIBRARY=mpv/mpv.dll -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=output ..
lib /def:mpv\mpv.def /out:mpv\mpv.dll.lib /MACHINE:X64
