VLC Media Player 0.9.9a
WHAT'S NEW
Version 0.9.9a fixes VLC's behaviour on PowerPC-based Macs and includes updated libraries for both platforms. In order to take full advantage of VLC 0.9.9's features, including Real Video playback, we recommend all Mac users to update to this new release. Due to a lack of active Mac OS X developers, these issues remained unnoticed for the last release. We are sorry for the noise and are looking for enthusiastic Mac developers to support us.

Grazie, anche a nome dei PPCisti ;)

Per il futuro, è interessante questa nota che qualcuno del team di VideoLAN ha messo su MacUpdate in risposta ai timori espressi da alcuni utenti:
THE DJ Just so everyone knows:

Building VLC for PPC is REALLY hard, when no developer uses PPC anymore. So every time around releasedate we find that something broke (usually ffmpeg), and we need to spend time fixing it (often this delays the ppc version, this time even more than before).

VLC has many mac developer veterans, but almost no ACTIVE mac developers (significantly holding back VLC Mac development, and usually keeping us in the "we need to keep it running"-mode, instead of the "let's improve it"-mode)

We discovered we forgot to update ffmpeg for the intel version in 0.9.9, so we are preparing an 0.9.9a release, which should have the RV30/40 support (intel AND ppc) like announced for 0.9.9 and a PPC version should be ready as well.

The amount of mess ups we have made with the Mac build on the 0.9.* versions with simply making a working and up-to-date binary should show you the need for fresh Mac OS X blood in the VLC media player team.

But rest assured, the PPC build is coming. For 1.0.0, however we are dropping support for anything older than Leopard. (sorry folks can't help it, we need llvm for some threading and locking features we use in the VLC core and 10.5 is the lowest platform that has this, and even then we need to switch to llvm-gcc). PPC support is still uncertain, it depends on wether we can get a working build with 10.5 llvm-gcc on powerpc. It looks like it might be possible, but it's proving to be a huge challenge. We haven't given up on that though.

Ringraziando per la segnalazione faccio presente che la versione 1.0.0 richiede almeno Leopard: chi avesse ancora Tiger continui ad utilizzare la 0.9.9a (disponibile nelle versioni universal binary, intel e powerpc: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html)
