The VideoLAN Forums

Good day to all of you,

Maybe stupid question: As it has been more than two weeks that a new, less vulnerable version has been released (1.0.6, http://www.videolan.org/security/sa1003.html), I wonder if there will be binaries of this release as well (mainly interested in windows), and if yes, when.

Thanks for all info,

greets, tobi...

I've been wondering about this too. It's been a fairly long time that 1.0.5 has been out and the bugs in Win 7 64bit are really killing me and making me check the download page every day for an update. Some of the bugs are the non-autoplay dvd function so you always have to manually go into computer->right click on the dvd drive->play with vlc player, in order for it to play. There's also the full-screen bugs that make the taskbar visible when you scroll full-screen and some applications will be on top of the video like winamp.

Apparently 1.0.6 is out here: http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/1.0.6/
but no one has bothered to make binaries for it yet

AFAIK it is a *nix/OS X release only.

If you want a newer build of VLC for Win32 which fixes bugs/vulnerabilities in 1.0.5 then download the latest pre-release of VLC 1.1.0 (currently 1.1.0-pre4):
