Can a unity dev/game dev help elucidate why you'd use vlc in unity? For cutscene playback?
Unity includes its own video player implementation ( https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Video.html ), so presumably you'd mainly want to use VLC for wider range of supported codecs?
Video game programming with unity was an absolute nightmare to try and get working with any kind of gitops and or with multiple people working on the same code base a couple of years ago
Wonder if that changed ?

Sounds similar to Apple's "Core Technology Fee", literally a mechanism for sabotaging third party app distribution in the EU.
Allowing third-party "app stores" is completely useless when all apps must be approved by the operating system company.
It's also being abused by google (technically, will be, very soon), I guess they saw that since the legal framework for this kind of thing has now been written, they can do it too.
On a similar note: Godot VLC ( https://github.com/xiSage/godot-vlc >), because let's not pretend we don't remember the Unity terms change controversy.

Side note--is there any way to access reddit now for people who refuse to log in or get the app? Old reddit asks tells me I have to use new reddit for "security" and new reddit says "Get the app to keep using Reddit".

Recently added support for Linux to VLC for Unity, with full hardware decoding. It uses OpenGL rendering through GLX and EGL, with DMA-BUF texture sharing to pass video frames efficiently to Unity’s renderer. Only x86_64 is supported at this time. In the future, I will add ARM64 support as well as Vulkan.
