This is the case of the patches that change some libraries from builtin to plugins (with the assumption that Gentoo always have them as PIC libraries). Patches for media-video/vlc are a bit different compared to Xine, as they are sometimes exclusive to Gentoo Linux and simply can't be upstreamed at all. Related to media-video/vlc there are, though, different libraries that might be a problem to maintain, as they are handled differently in Portage from what the other distributions do. Its maintenance is usually simple, as it's one of the most portable solutions (it runs natively on Linux, Windows, OSX and FreeBSD). A careful maintenance is needed, similarly to Xine. There are no front ends apart of the core media-video/vlc binary, but the different interfaces are loaded as modules.īecause of its structure, a crash into the decoding routines means a complete crash of the interface, too. Media-video/vlc is VLC media player, a multimedia player with different interface modules, though primarily as a streaming client. VLC's development is coordinated by the non-profit organisation, VideoLAN.This guide was last updated for media-video/vlc version 1.0.3. In 1998 the application was completely re-written, the functionality of the server was rolled into the client and the project was renamed VLC. The project, started in 1996, was intended to stream multimedia over a university network and consisted of a server and client. VLC was originally the client portion of the the VideoLAN project.
VLC is cross-platform, and issues may be specific to a particular platform. Questions should also consider tagging with the appropriate platform or OS tag. This tag should be used when using VLC command-line options, errors/crashes, enabling/disabling features, updating or issues with any of it's features, including but not limited to: It is able to stream media and to transcode multimedia files between formats. It is a portable, free and open-source, and supports many audio and video compression methods and file formats. VLC Media Player is media player/streaming media server by the VideoLAN project. For VLC, Super User seems like your best bet.
