[vlc] Re: VLC 0.7.0 for xscale with MPEG4 support

[Kausik Sinnaswamy]

Hello Jean-Paul,
    I downloaded the latest version 0.7.1 from the test location and
installed it. On the device, that I use, I can only control the
application using the serial port console. Since this version was a GTK
version, I am only able to see the Main Window and not the Video window.
I enabled "verbose" option and I still find a lot of "late picture
skipped" and "PTS out of range: dropping buffer" messages.  So I think
that not much has changed in this version either.
    Could I get an access to the latest 0.7.1 IPK with gtk disabled ? I
will install it and get back to you on the results. 

Thanks
- Kausik
