Dear VideoLAN users,
After more than two years of development and 100,000,000 VLC media
player 0.8.6 downloads, the VideoLAN team is proud to announce the
release of VLC media player 0.9.2, codename "Grishenko".
Some of the major changes from 0.8.6 to 0.9.2 include:
* New Qt4 interface for Windows and Linux
* Support for many new codecs (Dirac, Atrac3, APE, ...) and demuxers
* Vastly improved subtitles support
* Media library, Live playlist search, Last.FM support
* Album art support
* Improved metadata support
* Video for Linux 2 support (v4l2)
* DVB support on Windows (BDA)
* Simplified libvlc and Mac OS X development framework
* New localization to Finnish, Persian, Polish, Punjabi and Bulgarian
A comprehensive list of new features can be found on our wiki
<*wiki.videolan.org/What_is_cool_in_0.9> or by reading the release
notes at <*www.videolan.org/developers/vlc/NEWS> (See "Changes
between 0.8.6i and 0.9.1" as well as "between 0.9.1 and 0.9.2"). This
document also includes "important notes" which you should read before
upgrading to VLC 0.9.2.
Binary packages for Windows and MacOSX, as well as source code tarballs
are available for download at *www.videolan.org/vlc/ .

We'd like to thank all our contributors, testers and users around the
