VLC new version released

like with anything you have to test it to see for yourself. I use VLC for dvd playback and it beats the pants off FFDshow coupled with anyother player.

Try out a good dvd like Sin City or Star Wars EP2-3 and tell me thats not almost HD quality!

And it's now Aero compliant too so no more switching to Vista Basic UI when you run it.

just in case anyone wasn't aware - the version i originally posted about (0.8.6) was updated to 0.8.6a a while back.

Looks like a job for Pacman! (#pacman -Sy vlc)

Although the differences aren't that compelling to warrant an upgrade.

0.8.6f now out.

We are pleased to announce the release of VLC media player 0.8.6f.
This is a bugfix release. VLC media player 0.8.6e and earlier versions suffer from security vulnerabilities in the Subtitle demuxer, Real RTSP demuxer, MP4 demuxer and Cinepak codec.
This release also includes improved video output on multi-screen setups running Mac OS X and compatibility with Windows 9x/ME has been restored.
We strongly recommend all users to update to this new version.

I gave up on VLC ages ago. Media Player Classic and ffdshow are where it's at.

KMPlayer is way better than both VLC and MPC .
