Is this official?
Can't find the files on the official site or in their repo.
Using a 3.0.22RC (fixes bugs when run on XP)

PS I usually download the 7z version, it's smaller. To make it portable, create a directory named "portable" in the VLC directory.
All settings will be stored there.

I could have waited until the downloads were available on the videolan.org site.
The Changelog seemed up to date, and I had no problem with the videohelp.com download.
The updated information about VLC and downloads are at >https://www.videohelp.com/software/VLC-media-player
Thanks, but I had already created the directory named "portable".
