Man o man, if only the consortium would adopt a new standard of 88.2 . .. . I'd be happier 'an a pig in mud. The disc size would have to be larger; either thickness (both sides - turn it over???) or in radius (more like the trusty old 45's). A larger CD would make for *great* little 45 sized albums. And the bottom end would finally regain it's respectable status. Woohoo! (Screw nyquist theorEm naysayers.) -- Cheers, Ben

From: Sue Morton on 16 Jul 2010 13:23 VLC doesn't 'phone home' on any of my systems... never has, and has played just about everything I've thrown at it (but that is not an exhastive list). Check your settings? -- Sue Morton "Benjamin Goldman" <bengoldmanSKIPIT(a)centurytel.net> wrote in message > I think VLC phones home too much for essential files.

Zone Alarm lets me know when apps > try to phone home, and I never see VLC requesting internet access. I haven't in Windows either. Try compiling it in Linux and read the responses it gives you and follow the bread crumbs. They need to support their product at the website better. -- Cheers, Ben |
