Unable to run a peer

While trying to use the library to run a peer using this one command mentioned in Readme
./peer --splitter_addr 150.214.150.68 --splitter_port 4552 > /dev/null &
vlc http://localhost:9999 &

I tried mpv http://localhost:9999 &

I kept getting these errors -

Playing: http://localhost:9999

Add Boost download and compilation before use it

There is a problem using Boost from the package repositories in some OS (for example, Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS). We think that a good solution could be to include in the file make.py an option to compile p2psp-console using downloaded (and compiled) version of Boost. The compilation of Boost could be stored in a temporal directory inside p2psp-console.
