using correct version..
Authored by: bluehz on Aug 29, '03 07:53:27AM

... also - I was looking for a way to use the cli version of VLC, but I never found any info. Turns out if you go into the VLC pkg contents, and execute the VLC command in the terminal you will be able to use the cli client.

cd /Applications/vlc-0.6.2/VLC/contents/MacOS
./VLC -h

if you just execute ./VLC all it does is luanch the app itself.

Some interesting stuff inside the pkg too. Have a look at /Applications/vlc-0.6.2/VLC/contents/MacOS/share/ some interesting admin web pages. NOt sure exactly how they are used though. I was impressed to find that VLC can actually be used to stream files TO other location. Similar to a poorman's QuickTimeStreamingServer... also VLS, is a full fledged QTSS replacement.
