I noticed this behavior also. Think think Software Update has been limited to "system software" and everything else goes thru the AppStore now? The fact that Leopard doesn't have an AppStore app doesn't matter too much because Apple doesn't support Leopard or PPC any longer. --You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

VLC vs Leopard
Hi, I finally updated my QuickSilver (2002) from Tiger to Leopard, yesterday. For the most part it went well. Clean install of 10.5.4 then applied the combo to get to 10.5.8. SU hit me with a bunch of stuff, like a Security Update and Java. But then I had to fetch the latest iTunes and QuickTime from Apple manually - they weren't showing up in Software Update at all! Performance seems good, except for VLC... I've got a bunch of mpeg-2 videos (direct DVD rips and such) that played quite well in VLC 0.9.10 on Tiger. But in VLC 2.0.2 they stutter badly, then VLC crashes! I reverted to 0.9.10, and they're playing smoothly again. Anyone else having problems with VLC 2? Is there a build between 0.9 and 2 that's worth trying, or should I just stick with 0.9.10?
