VLC - Trojan question

[SV7]

Has there EVER been a case of VLC being downloaded with a Trojan within it? (downloaded from either the VLC site or any of the mirror sites)

I see a lot of threads/posts here relating to instances of anti-virus software claiming there to be a Trojan present.

That's the only reason I'm asking.

I assume that these cases are all false positives, yes?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

There have been false positives. There have also been scams from unofficial websites.

Thanks.

VLC mirror sites are counted as being official, yes?

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Yes. Take it only from videolan.org
