VLC media player 0.8.6i (Stable branch)

Image VideoLAN Client (VLC) is a media player, streamer, and encoder for Unix, Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS, QNX, and PocketPC. It can play most audio and video codecs (MPEG 1/2/4, DivX, WMV, Vorbis, AC3, AAC, etc.), has support for VCD, SVCD, and DVD (with menus), and can read or dump streams from a network source (HTTP, UDP, DVB, MMS, etc.). It can also act as a server and send streams through the network, with optional support for audio and video transcoding. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
An integer overflow in the WAV demuxer, as reported in CVE-2008-2430, was fixed. Galaktos-based audio visualizations on FreeBSD were improved. The option to use shared memory within the GLX video output module was fixed. Miscellaneous bugfixes were made in multiple modules and in libvlc.Image
