In relation to the lack of people testing beta/RC builds, you might even consider having Release Candidates be the default download from the website a few days ahead of the actual release. I know that seems a bit extreme, but it would let the team get a list of the bugs in the RC before pushing the update out to the in-app update checker, and they would be able to see if the bugs are serious enough to warrant delaying release. Of course, an option to download the most recent final version should still be visible.

Good article :). I agree with gabsd84 though in that there's they're not a lot of visible information on the website about testing/RC releases (could perhaps have a development/beta/RC builds section?).

Also FYI your link to the Wiki goes to forum.videolan.org :P.

Cheers, Arite.

They are listed on the website... But maybe not visible enough...

I will keep that in mind.

Thanks for your hard work. VLC is simply awesome. Have been getting as many people to use it as possible and even donated a few times.

Might be worth announcing beta and RC releases on the website. I would certainly test them on my multiple Linux virtual machines if I knew they were out.

Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much for what you've done. I have recommended VLC to all my friends years ago and we're still spreading this great piece of software
