media player 0.9.2 Grishenko. I saw at their official website that this new software has a lot of new feautures for media player and streaming. VLC media player is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ...) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It can also be used as a server to stream in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on a high-bandwidth network. Installation:
The installation is pretty easy, you need to put some unofficial package for ubuntu 8.04 , in the future of ubuntu 8.10, vlc will be available in the official ubuntu repositories.
Here is the installation method for ubuntu 8.04:
1. If you already had installed the VLC media player inside your ubuntu, remove it by typing:
2. Add a new repositories: Open System > Administration> Software Sources > Third-Party Software. Click the "add" button to add a new repositories and paste this code:

V.N Article! Finally, a fresh look for VLC media player. Love it! Can you give us more information about the other streaming services?
ReplyDeleteThis is all very well, but the repo doesn’t have a signed key. Which means it is completely worthless. You people are SO irresponsible - do you EVER give a second’s thought before giving “advice” to others ?
ReplyDeleteHm... I managed to installed it properly. There's some probability that the repo signed key is the same with the ppa.launchpad.net key. Thx for the tutorial! You still need to put some repositories signed key, newbie might get confused with this.
ReplyDelete@peter fields & van der noch: There's no GPG key needed! Just add like I told you and it will run as smooth as a silk! For peter fields: I always have a second thought before giving some advice and I always tested it before post it to know the fact behind those software. However, thank you for the suggestion and criticism. I really appreciate that.
ReplyDeleteWell.I managed to installed this vlc correctly without any problem. Seemed to be there's no GPG key needed after all. Thx for the tutorial.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't seem to work for Gutsy as your post indicates.
