Summary 0004305: VLC 0.7.2 is too old
Description OpenCSW VLC 0.7.2 is too old (2004). Current 2010 release is now 1.0.5.

Windows, MacOS, Linux, have the last VLC release ... why Solaris does not have it ! Lack of firefox video plugins other than flash or real last now for a too long time.

VLC is also a file converter useful to maintain web site with videos.

Additional Information Here is a 1.0.1 release but without dependancies other than qt4 (I understand that you have to take them from many repositories sunfreeware, blastwave or opencsw, and so on.)

Here was a short time a 0.9.5 release (no longer here)

with a plugin working under firefox 2-3
If it could be of some help, it was configured with

 main libvlc debug: libvlc was configured with ./configure '--prefix=/opt/LWS' '--enable-shared' '--disable-static' '--enable-shout' '--enable-dvdread' '--enable-gnomevfs' '--enable-faad' '--disable-glx' '--disable-opengl' '--disable-fribidi' '--enable-svg' '--disable-visual' '--enable-goom' '--enable-loader' '--enable-mozilla' '--without-libiconv-prefix' '--with-libintl-prefix=/opt/sfw' '--with-tuning=i386' '--disable-libgcrypt' '--disable-gnutls' '--disable-remoteosd' 'LDFLAGS=-L/opt/LWS/lib -L/opt/LWS/qt4/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib/firefox -L/usr/sfw/
