VLC Download URLs

Postby GlacialMan » 28 Aug 2015 22:53

Hello, I can't automatically update the setup files of VLC (via WGET) because the URL varies depending on the version:

http://download.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/2.2.1/win32/vlc-2.2.1-win32.exe
http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/2.2.1/win64/vlc-2.2.1-win64.exe

If it doesn't already exist, is it possible to have a situation like the following, always up to date?

http://download.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/last/win32/vlc-last-win32.exe
http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/last/win64/vlc-last-win64.exe

The path "last" already exists, it would be enough just change the file names. Thanks and good job.

No. Changing the filename requires a lot of work, so no.
