vlc player

[uzuki7777]

Hello, I think this is the right place to alert about this. winget seems to be getting a nightly version of vlc player for some reason.

Right I have regular vlcplayer not nightly but it wants me to download nightly when I say winget upgrade.

Awesome did somebody fix it? It doesn't want me to download vlcplayer anymore!

[uzuki7777]

Hello, so it was right that there was another vlc player available, but after I installed it, it still thinks I have the older version. I checked regedit and it had the correct value on it. I saw somewhere I need to fix that, but that didn't need fixing this time. I even rebooted.

Can you please share the output of winget list VideoLAN.VLC?

[uzuki7777]

[mdanish-kh]

I don't see anything wrong with the output. You are on a previous version and will get the latest if you run winget upgrade VideoLAN.VLC. What version are you referring to when you say

it still thinks I have the older version. I checked regedit and it had the correct value on it

Can you please check the version of VLC you have in appwiz.cpl (Control Panel)?

[uzuki7777]

If I go to ABOUT on my vlc, it says I have the lateast version. When I go home I'll try it again and if it's still wrong I'll show you.

Yeah it's wrong I have the newer version.

ive been having this exact same issue, stable being updated to nightly, and the nightly crashes every time i use it, so it's infuriating. if i uninstall vlc nightly and then install the stable everything works, but the next time i do winget upgrade --all it'll update vlc to nightly and it is essentially unusable again.

(neither #89240 or #89239 seem to have solved it)

[uzuki7777]

Well I just use winget upgrade to list updates and then have the program update itself.
