Hi
I will focus more closely on running dependencies on any update because I failed to check the sizes of the recursive deps. I will wait for others to complain before deciding on changing any names for future updates. Also I failed to ask some members to do local testing before submission.....altho that may not have reported the size issues new vlc now now has.
cheers

Hi

I hope mods don't mind me replying to an old thread and not drifting off topic too much?

I am planning on updating vlc 32 bit but may ask for testers to try and be smarter.
naturally I have done one local build, but it needs to rebuilt so I can not ask permission to submit until I get it right.

for vlc v 2.2.4
local audio tests pass...wav, wma mp3
fails for ogg....I had libogg-dev but will retry adding libopus-dev

local video pass avi, flv, wmv, mp4

streaming youtube....image loads then screen goes black but sound ok

new local test mkv video...image loads and plays but heavy pixelation

###################

whats weird is I never tested vlc2 until a few seconds ago....and my local mkv file plays well.

I am not sure if I need help with video acceleration stuff....but I am in no rush as I have to go away for a week. 

At a suitable time, with submission approval.... look out in the unofficial forum for my rebuild for any interested testers.

And if its not too rude.....I have refreshed my memory of this post and have elected to keep it simple and have only one vlc....vlc2 will left in 7.x for those who want it but vlc will update and maybe only vlc becomes available to be searched for Linux users who try out v 8 sometime in the future.

incidently the size difference when vlc to vlc2 is only 3 Mb when vlc2 is 54 Megs versus the cli mplayer of 10 megs.....so I don't I chose the wrong option in the past
