[vlc-devel] [PATCH 1/3] vlm: deprecate the VLM

[Pierre Ynard]

The VLM is affected by many basic design issues, that can't be fixed
otherwise than stopping using it in favor of something else. Meanwhile
we now have new, proper player and playlist APIs that support the
multiple inputs that the VLM allows. It's time to start moving on into
that direction.

This deprecates the VLM entry API call.
