Yes, as I already stated, I have heard "don't mix-em" but I have installed vlc from the videolan.org using the '1-click insall' there (and therefore have their repo in my list of repos), and also have both the packman and libdvdcss repos selected - and I have never had any problem until this last update a few days ago.
Right now I cannot be bothered with trying to figure out how to get vlc to behave as it did before and so will carry on with xine until it is time to install 12.2 :-) . zypper mr -d<videolan-repo> zypper dup --from<packman-repo> -D
not a lot of effort for something that is "not working"/"unused"
Well, your bit about using "zypper dup --from...." only generated a list of files a mile long which dup was going to replace :-( . So, naturally, I aborted this process. I looked in Software Manager and found that the vlc I have installed is version 1.9.99 (aka 2.0) from the videolan repo [which purports to be a preview of the next version]. This version was installed on 12 February. The previous version I had installed was 1.1.13 and it is also the version which comes in Milestone 1 of 12.2. This version I believe is packaged by 'dimstar'. I'll think about this and if I do decide to go back to 1.1.13 then I will delete the current version I have and then do- zypper in --from <packmanrepo> Or simply use YaST to do the installation.
