VLC media player 0.9.9
2009-04-02
The VideoLAN team is very pleased to announce the release of VLC media player 0.9.9.
This is a bugfix release on the 0.9 branch of VLC. Notables bugfixes are:
* fullscreen behaviour on Windows with multiple screens,
* workaround bug with libxml2 >=2.7.3,
* video performance on Intel-based Macs,
* various decoders updates on Windows.
An experimental native decoder for Real Video 3.0 & 4.0 using FFmpeg has been added and many fixes happened in our Real Media demuxer.
This should improve Real Media Files support on all platforms."
