VLC 3.0.24 is out. This is mainly a security/maintenance release: 130+ security fixes across VLC and bundled libraries (the most we've ever handled) with LLM-assisted research likely contributing to the volume. Also: 49 third-party libraries updated, FFmpeg 4.4 → 8.1.2, support for CEA-708 in MP4, ATRAC3/9, SRT listener mode, and a new RSA-4096 update key. Still supports XP → 11, macOS 10.7 → current, Linux/BSD/OS/2. Thanks to the Sovereign Tech Fund supporting us! https://videolan.org/vlc/releases/3.0.24.html

RE: @T_X@chaos.social

Developers cannot know all bugs. We are not omniscient. We need people to report bugs :)

dav2d should already be feature-complete, supporting 8-bit and 10-bit decoding, with optimizations for x86 (AVX2) and ARM (AArch64 NEON). It's not fast yet, but you can achieve 100fps with a fast machine :)

@manx @sashk there are reasons why 3.0.22 will never be announced by the updater, but sure, it is part of countless times where we forget about the updater. seriously..

@reiddragon @manx @sashk mostly for Windows (instant crash on quit, failing video output, ..) and Mac, rather minor things for Linux.
