Yet again, broken anti-virus software flag the latest version of VLC on Windows as a malware. This is, once again, a false positive.
As some of the anti-virus makers plainly refuse to fix their code, we recommend to our users to stop using Kaspersky, AVL, TheHacker or AVG.
Users are advised to use the free Antivir or the new Microsoft Security Essential.
Moreover, we advise users to download VLC only from videolan.org, as very numerous scam websites have appeared lately.

On 30 October 2008 VLC media player won a "tim Award" in category "Multimedia Software" at a PC-WELT event. The awards were announced during a gala diner at "Bayerische Hof" in Munich. Two famous german TV presenters hosted the event. The VideoLAN team is very honoured by winning this award and wants to thank its user base for giving us this token of your appreciation. VLC media player could not have won this award without the support and dedication of its users and Open Source developers. Read more about the event on PC-WELT website.

The VideoLAN team ceases all form of support for VLC media player 0.8.6-bugfix tree. After several several call for help, it is apparent that there is no interest in the community to maintain the 0.8.6 branch of the VLC media player. As a consequence, it has not been possible to put sufficient efforts to ensure adequate continued quality of the 0.8.6-bugfix branch. Effective immediately, there will be no more security and critical fixes for VLC 0.8.6. Binary releases of the 0.8.6-bugfix branch had already stopped as of July 2008. The VideoLAN team will continue to provide major or security-related bug fixes for the VLC media player 0.9-bugfix branch. If you have not already upgraded to VLC version 0.9.5, please do so urgently (exploits for vulnerabilities found in older versions are widely available as of today).

VLC media player 0.9.4 and earlier versions suffer from a security vulnerability in TiVo demuxer. Further technical details are available in our advisory (CVE-2008-4654, CVE-2008-4686). Also, libpng was updated in Windows and MacOS builds to address a separate security issue (CVE-2008-3964).
This release also improves media keys support under Windows, file access under all OSes, Qt4 interface usability, and fixes a few extra bugs. Full list of changes can be found here.
We utmostly recommend all users upgrade to this new version.
Binary packages for Mac OS X and source code tarballs are available for download. Windows binary release is indefinitely postponed pending volunteers taking over the Windows port.
Help is available, as usual, in many places:

We accidently released the 0.9.3 Mac OS X PowerPC binary as the 0.9.4 download. We apologize for this, and corrected PowerPC and Universal downloads have been uploaded to our main mirror. It will take up to a day for these binaries to be distributed to some of our mirrors. If you want you can download the file directly from our main server.

We are putting out a call for NEW Windows developers. At the moment, our Windows-port is sorely missing some much needed love from a true Windows developer. Our team has been without a Windows developer for several months now, which is blocking us from supporting our largest usergroup in the manner we want to. We are therefore looking for developers to help our team in the areas of debugging crashes, Direct X, A/V capturing, ActiveX and Windows integration, so we can hopefully resume supporting our largest group of users in the best possible way. If we are unable to find new developers, new versions of VLC media player for Windows might become less frequent and severely out of sync with the Linux and Mac OS X versions.

So, no donations for work on the Windows-port and no "opportunities"-emails, for Windows we only require: Developers, Developers, Developers !!!!!

The VideoLAN Team is pleased to announce the release of VLC Skin Editor 0.7.
After more than a year of development finally the first official stable release is there.

The Skin Editor enables designers to create skins for VLC without having them to learn about XML and the internal makeup of skins2. It provides an easy-to-use WYIWYG editing interface giving full control over all of the skin's features.

Binary packages for windows, including an installer can be found at the Skin Editor page. There can also be found a build for all other operating systems for which exist a Java Runtime Environment 6 SE.

IBC 2008 is the 2nd largest conference and exhibition on Broadcasting technology in the world. Though VLC media player does not have a stand (terribly expensive), it is used on many stands by the attending companies. As every year, several of the VLC media player developers were present on the floor and Derk-Jan Hartman made a photo report showing some of the uses, by companies like: HP, Cisco, Anystream, Fraunhofer, BBC and many smaller companies.
It is the industries 'dirty little secret' you could say. Much of the IPTV based work starts by testing the IPTV streams with VLC media player. New features are sometimes even implemented in VLC media player for internal development, and then once it works, the engineers write a new program based on their experiences, which they deliver to their customers. However sometimes VLC media player even makes it into the endproduct. Big name HP clearly uses VLC media player in this product of theirs.

The builds for Mac OS X Intel were still being produced on a Development Kit Intel machine from Apple. It's time to bring that machine back to Apple and as a replacement the VideoLAN team has used the donations of our users in order to purchase a new server. The original idea was to get a MacMini, but in the configuration we wanted it, we could just as well get an iMac. Which is what we did. We received the machine last week, and now it's setup, and keeping an eye on VLC for MacIntel. We would like to thank all the people who made donations very much. You people keep the project running.

There are many things that we would like to improve in VLC, but that we don't, because we simply don't have enough time. That's why we are currently looking for some help. We have identified several small projects that prospective developers could work on.
Knowledge of C and/or C++ programming will certainly be useful, but you don't need to be an expert, nor a video expert. Existing VLC developers will be able to help you on these projects. You can find the list and some instructions on the dedicated Wiki page. Don't hesitate to join us on IRC or on the mailing-lists. We are waiting for you !

Those of you browsing the web with text only console browsers might think that this website's design is great, all the others wouldn't agree (some might even dare compare it with VLC's default interface on windows and linux). We've thus decided to give you the opportunity to change it.
Rules are available on the wiki. All discussion and posts relative to the contest will be made in the Website discussion forum.
Update: The deadline for this contest is set to Friday 14/07. You can have a look at current proposals on this wiki page.
