Hi gang! I'm trying to update my videolan client (0.8.4a-4.el4.rf) to the latest 0.8.6 version. I see that Dag has a 0.8.6 for EL4 (I'm running Centos 4.4) but when I do "yum update videolan-client" it says there's nothing to update. When I remove the videolan client than do "yum install videolan-client" it insists on trying to install the 0.8.4 version:

hi, I'm Alexander a just a question ? is there a reason why there shouldn't be a web player for theora in Mozilla FireFox ? or Internet explorer ? I'm thinking to compile videolan player with theora support only and enable the web plugin interface, it would replace the cortado player and possibly provide a better alternative to flash video plugin in linux when somebody starts a

What are the chances that a package such as vlc from http://videolan.org/vlc would become included in extras? so a yum install vlc would work. Thanks, Jerry

I am very interested in the Theora codec, but I dont knwo how to get it started. Do I have to install it? or should I just look for a Theora player to watch theora videos? Anyways I have Vista installed so I dont know how my pc is going to react to it. Thanks

Hi Seeing as other people are posting streams to test, the system I have been developing has an Ogg/Vorbis/Theora stream that you can watch. I would appreciate any feedback to what players can play it and which players have problems. (I am using Icecast as the streaming server) So far I have found VideoLan plays the stream very well. MPlayer was ok, but wasn't as good at buffering.

Hallo again! Some month ago we discussed about the Vorbis Comment Chapter Extension: http://wiki.xiph.org/Chapter_Extension I got some critics about this specification, especially from the VLC developers: see https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/6895 Some parts of it: <cite> This specification allows holes between chapters and allows overlapping chapters... And does not explain what to

Hello Dan Johnson, hello list, It's really weird that there's no working command line player for FLAC files. Dan Johnson created flac123 (licensed under the GPL) to fill that gap, and started the flac-tools project. Unfortunately, flac123 doesn't work anymore with the latest FLAC, and the flac-tools project has been idle for more than a year. I created a patch that makes flac123

Hi, VLC recently migrated to libflac 1.3.1, however we had to revert to 1.3.0 as we had crashes for most FLAC files on the Windows desktop platform. More information is available here: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/14104 Best, Tristan

Friends, My name is Igor, I am new to this forum. I have a peculiar problem with my OGG/Speex implementation: I encode a short PCM stream in OGG/Speex, but the result can not be read by VLC and MediaInfo <http://mediaarea.net/nn/MediaInfo> reports that the file is too short (240ms). In reality the file contains about 2.7 sec worth of audio. Another interesting thing I noticed is that the

Hi, I'm wondering how I can make my patched up mplayer work with other MPlayer frontends, such as mplayer-plugin, GMPlayer, SMPlayer and KMPlayer. When I play a video using mplayer normally with: mplayer video.ext, It detects the compiz video output and works fine, however when it is called from other players (AFAIK, it just creates a window then asks mplayer to display in it) with mplayer

Hello Icecast Developer, I hope, that I'm right here. My favorit Multimedia Player (VLC-Player) from Videolan can not play current a single Radiostation in the Icecast Radios List "http://dir.xiph.org/yp.xml". The "Icecast Radio Directory" in the VLC-Player does'nt find any Icecast Radiostation. I get an Error in Line 51875, column 75

What do you find preferable? Installing from sources or installing from binary packages?

Hi All, I'm have a lot of speech files that are given from an organisation that has a lot of audio tapes with talks on them. Many people use these tapes, and I have started to convert to the audio to mp3. More recently I've started using speex, but the problem is, many people are using macintosh's and I don't know how to play speex files on macintosh, (Linux, & Windows

If so, could you please share the build instructions or some references detailing what scripts need to be updated. I don't have access to any ARM64 hardware, but you might want to try --disable-neon, see:

Hi, I've been trying out nouveau for a while now and I must say I'm impressed. Performance in KDE4 in general seems better than the nvidia blob; way to go! There are a couple of annoyances though: XV in fullscreen doesn't work. I'm running in composite mode, and non fullscreen video works well enough. Going fullscreen in e.g gmplayer gives me: [ws] Error in display. -0.005 ct:

Here's the new API method and update to virt-inspector. I still need to implement app_arch for debian and windows (if applicable), for now they just return empty strings. New in v2: incorporated feedback from v1, also added patch #3 which updates the documentation where it references the deprecated API. Take it or leave it.

Hi, On a CentOS4 I've updated kdelibs and everything that up2date has signaled me to, and now I get segmentation fault when running xmms (installed from the Centos4 dvd) and also when running gmplayer which is installed from DAG repository for EL4. Is anyone in my position or it's just me? Do you know why? Adrian

First of all, Thank you for a great program... I am trying to setup a sort of Radio Station for our College and your program is ideal. So yeah thanks. However i have a question: I understand that to stream over the internet you need a streaming server. Correct? BUT for me, streaming over our LAN, will that be necerssary? Ideally I would like to use the computer that is running Icecast to

We are switching from Windows Media to Icecast. I want to get as close to open source as possible. That means that I need the following open-source items: Player for Windows (not Winamp if possible - it's now owned by AOL.) Player for Mac Player for Linux We will also be podcasting, so that means our encoding needs to be compatible with the Apple iPod. Here's what it supports: MP3
