[vlc] Some MacOSX questions

[nunyo bizness]

Hello,

I'm using the current version 0.8.6 on my intel iMac with 10.4.10 (or  
whatever's newest) and I'm having some questions.
1. I remember it was once possible to set my external monitor to be  
the default, but Preferences>Video>Output Modules>macosx doesn't  
exist anymore, so I can't set that.
2. I'm told that I can't use the MacOSX interface as an extra  
interface, and that I should see the README.MacOSX.txt file, except  
it doesn't mention anything about using the Macosx interface, as an  
extra interface, or otherwise. (But the problem doesn't prevent me  
from using the macosx interface, or the ncurses interface)
3. When I run clivlc with the ncurses interface, I get the error  
message:" Trace/BPT trap41:53.734 clivlc[14076] *** Uncaught  
exception: <NSInvalidArgumentException> *** -[NSPlaceholderDictionary  
initWithObjects:forKeys:count:]: attempt to insert nil value " and  
then the program quits. I can run VLC with the ncurses interface, but  
I *must* use the macosx interface as well, I can't run it command- 
line only.

Any help would be super appreciated.

BTW, I did some researching, and version 0.8.4  was the most recent  
that would let me run clivlc with no errors. It was also the most  
recent version to have Preference > Video > Output Modules > macosx.
