Hi The new vlc version (0.2.81) works with SDL 1.2.2 on Mac OS X (10.0.3 i believe) out-of-the-box At least when compiling both with debugging enables ("-g"), and when linking the SDL via "-L/usr/local/bin -lSDL -lSDLmain". I will tried it without debugging, and using "-framework SDL" in the next days... greetings, Florian Pflug
