audio city version i have is 1.2.12.

you do not mention where you pulled from, so i would suggest same
site where i pulled it.

i checked back in history to insure i recalled where i pulled it.

this is file i have to pull nux desktop rpms.

/etc/yum.repos.d/nux-dextop.repo

=+=+=+
[nux-dextop]
name=Nux.Ro RPMs for general desktop use
baseurl=http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el6/$basearch/
http://mirror.li.nux.ro/li.nux.ro/nux/dextop/el6/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-nux.ro
protect=0

[nux-dextop-testing]
name=Nux.Ro RPMs for general desktop use - testing
baseurl=http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop-testing/el6/$basearch/
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-nux.ro
protect=0

=+=+=+

as for vlc, i have version 2.0.8, so you might need to find a later
release. a problem is that it likes to enable screen blanking when
playing videos. :-\

this is what i pulled for it;

  vlc-core-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64
  vlc-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64
  vlc-plugin-jack-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64
  vlc-extras-2.0.8-2.el6.nux.x86_64

hth.

Does nux play well with epel or rpmforge?

i do not mix packages, other than a program that runs with 'base'
files.

in that if you pull a program from epel and want addition 'add to',
get them from epel, not rpmforge.

same may apply with nux builds.
