Description Jose Alonso Cardenas Marquez freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2024-04-10 23:35:34 UTC 
CHROMECAST option should be enable by default. it is helpful for user which want cast video or audio to chromecast devices. VLC includes this support long time ago and I think it is well mature and it working well right now. Btw another vlc binary packages (Linux distros, OpenBSD, NetBSD, etc) include this support by default.

I'll add it to the vlc 3.0.21 update I'm working on.

    Fix SKINS option where if a skin was selected, application would not
