    Please may I leave feedback for someone in VLC. it is an excellent player, however I downloaded the latest version and bin and cue files are not supported! After all this time. shame! Please may I be added to a petition to reinstate this? Thank you.

    And where can we (the users) get that patch? (In this case I’ll build my VLC from ABS (Arch Build System). TIA.

    Hello! The VDPAU and ffmpeg-mt support is implemented already? I’ll use it then..but else, it makes no sense to switch. (Since I can’t even play HD videos without VDPAU or ffmpeg-mt).

    Thanks!
