Feature added by: Ricardo Gabriel Berlasso (RGBsuse) Feature #309259, revision 1 Title: Include VLC Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Ricardo Gabriel Berlasso (rgbsuse) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Considering the fact that VLC phonon back-end is finally taking shape (http://amarok.kde.org/blog/archives/1171-Rapid-Progress-in-KDE-Multimedia.ht...) , I think is important to consider the inclusion of VLC client on openSUSE, even if "diminished" in the same way in which xine is actually shipped. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: VLC is one of the best multimedia players for Linux and there will be a back-end for phonon that use it. The addition of VLC will give the user more choice and a better multimedia experience. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/309259
