It's not a flame war. I hope.. But I just tried to point out that vlc IMO ain't a killer application for linux. In time you will see that gnu proggies are mostly dedicated to a very specific tasks. You will find some great for dvd ripping, for converting to other formats, listening music and radio or watching dvb-(s,c,t) etc. Vlc suits some of my needs but not all of them. For other needs I found IMO better alternatives. But as always, you shall fell free to do it the way appropriate to you. thx Jan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
