Sure, enable F-9 repositories temporarily just to install vlc (once F-9 has
0.9.5).

Thanks for the reply.  I asked  recent version from fedora forums and one nice guy (seve) provided a 0.9.4 fc9 rpm.  When I tried to install that to fc8 I got a bunch of dependency errors.  After that Leigh compiled seve's sources against fc8 and provided those to me and I got vlc installed.  Based on this I assume fc9 vlc rpm's might not install to fc8?
