Package: vlc
Version: 0.9.8a-3
Severity: important
The new version of VLC works on Squeeze but I'e stopped using it because
it is basically useless.
The separate control and video windows can't be turned off, the video
window doesn't remember where it was the last time it was opened, the
playback speed controls are missing, the video seems to use more
resources / is choppier than in the previous version, the new control
bar has ugly icons, etc.. However the problem I'm complaining about is
that the tools | preferences don't seem to do anything.
This used to be a pretty good player. The current rendition removes the
things I liked about it (single panel, speed controls, low resource
usage) and replaces it with things I didn't like about
mplayer (two panels, no speed controls - but skip forward and backward
controls) and kaffeine (no speed or skip controls).

Package: vlc
Version: 1.0.3-1
Closing as some of the problem are fix in 1.0.3 as pointed out by Rémi,
some are due to libavutil from debian-multimedia.org and some are just
design disagreement with new upstream interface
