Now the update link (7z version) are:
http://download.videolan.org/pub/videol ... 9-win32.7z
http://download.videolan.org/pub/videol ... 9-win32.7z
and future version will have different URI (in accord to version number), while a fixed link (that could be a php page pointing to last version file, in example "http://download.videolan.org/pub/videol ... n32-7z.php") could maintain a static link.
Anyway I've just automated a procedure to check and download automatically new versions, it could be useful to other users and I post it here (I'm sure it can be optimized with pipes or in other ways...):
Code: Select all
cd {local path where you want to save the .7z file}
wget -d -S http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/last/win32/
grep -G 7z..vlc index.html > index1.html
wget -B "http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/last/win32/" -d -N -i index1.html -F
del index*N.B.: The script above require 2 commands anyway: "wget" and "grep", freely available on this pages:
