- video performance on Intel-based Macs,
- various decoders updates on Windows.

Oh and before I go, don’t forget the skins contest they’re having – click here.

   Hi.

   Is there any specific reason you always link directly to the file? Is there any chance you can link to the download page rather (or as well)?

   I enjoy finding out about new software, but I prefer to visit the site and see screenshots before downloading an unknown zip file and installing it.

   Now I have to get the link from the file, get the URL of the site it’s pointing to and then opening that page.

   thanks.

   I sometimes link direct, I sometimes don’t – I think in this case, people are more interested in just updating rather than reading much more, hence the direct link – I will take your opinion into account though, don’t get me wrong, I understand.

   videolan.com is the website’s address afaik :)
