Looking at the popcon data there seems to be interest in the package (vlc: 51349 installs vs. vlc-nox: 53687 installs). I've done the following instead: - Improved the check if plugins in vlc-nox link against libX11 or libxcb. - Moved the RDP plugin to vlc as it is linked to libX11 via libfreerdp1. - Killed vlc-plugin-pulse and moved the PulseAudio plugins to vlc. Xfce, KDE and Gnome all pull in libpulse0 anyway, so I think there is no need for the split. What about users who don't use PulseAudio and are instead using some other audio output? As for the GUI-pulse dependencies, they might be using something like LXDE which doesn't pull in Xfce/KDE/Gnome dependencies.

Bug#692856: Endless loop at end of file when file is removed during play
Turn off repeat/loop mode then. If you ask VLC to loop it will naturally try to continuously re-open it because you are repeating the playlist. See http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/7048 for a similar case. ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

Bug#672972: Wheezy: VLC player can't play videos
VLC uses "XVideo Output (XCB)" (xcb_xv) as its default video output. The problem that you are having with xvideo is because your video drivers are buggy and don't support XVideo properly (prime example: VirtualBox XVideo and certain other binary blob drivers are buggy).

Request for upload: VLC 2.0.1-4~bpo60+1 new version
Hi Debian Multimedia Maintainers Team: I would be grateful if someone could please sponsor and upload the new squeeze-backports version of VLC (that I have ported) to backports.debian.org. The package needs to be backported as the version in unstable would also pull in far too many unwanted libraries from unstable, and the package in vanilla Squeeze is too old for the average user. * Package name: vlc Version : 2.0.1-4~bpo60+1 The package is currently sitting in the pkg-multimedia/vlc.git Git repository, branch squeeze-backports at <http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-multimedia/vlc.git;a=commitdiff;h=39574d02c2aabe84e869d690dc7c4b6eb819dc04>. I would be glad if someone sponsored and uploaded this package for me. This will be my first package ported in Debian.

Hello
Hi Debian Multimedia Maintainers Team: I am Edward Wang from the VLC project, and I would like to join the Debian Multimedia Maintainers Team to work on a backport of the latest version of VLC to Debian Squeeze. I have already compiled successfully both i386 and amd64 versions of VLC 2.0.1 on Debian Squeeze and am waiting permission. This is a very popular piece of software and many of our users are clamouring for its arrival on Debian Squeeze, one of the most popular operating systems on this planet. I hope you will take VLC into consideration by accepting me into the Debian Multimedia Maintainers Team. Thanks, Edward Wang ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
