Upgrade killed CVLC
Posted: 13 Oct 2021 18:02
Hi
I have about 26 Raspberry Pis displaying various different IPTV video streams at work.
They have for a long time been running Raspbian lite and CVLC.
A recent apt-get upgrade unfortunately killed them.
The offending packages were
libraspberrypi-bin
libraspberrypi-dev
libraspberrypi-doc
libraspberrypi0
raspberrypi-bootloader
With the latest version of these installed VLC attempts to launch, and appears to be running, however the video output does not appear to function
I appreciate not many people will be running VLC without the desktop environment, but has anyone else experienced this?
I have held the packages for now so it won't brick the whole system... again!
Thanks
Andy
