You also do not need the videolan repo for vlc, since vlc is also shipped via packman (I use that vlc version from packman).
I have added both the URLs, viz.,
Videolan Repository - http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/SuSE/11.4/
Packman Repository - http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/openSUSE_11.4/
And installed the VLC media player (after putting it in search field). Now music files of all format are working in it (like, .mp4, .flv, .mpg, .mpeg, .DAT, .mp3). But I really didn't know (but there must be some method) from which location was this VLC installed from Packman or the other one, but now I have removed the Videolan repository URL, and VLC is still working. Does this necessarily mean that VLC was installed from Packman repository?
No, when a repository is removed no package from it will be uninstalled and no package will swith its vendor. Simply open yast software management and search for vlc, in the versions tab you can see from which repository it is. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
