One of the reasons I dislike VLC. They (used to) use their own compiled libraries, often patched from the default ones, basically it was almost self-supported like a flatpak... Not sure if that has changed.
That's only true if you WANT it to be true. The upstream tarball comes indeed with quite a few bundled libraries to make installation easier. Hardly any of them are patched in a a non-upstream supported way. And the openSUSE packages (and thus also PackMan and VideoLAN repo, since they all use the linked sources from openSUSE BuildService) don't use the libs shipped by the tarball. And actually did not since version 1.0 or so.
Ah - this is good to know. I intentionally wrote 'used to', as I didn't know the current status. I stand corrected (and am glad about it ;^>)
For what I need mpv is for sure enough. But that was of course not the question ;^>
Then don't use VLC - you have the choice to use what you like.
Guess why I didn't know the current state - it's not installed here. But maybe I should have a look at it again. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
