- HTTP server IP address, port, and TLS configuration is now centralized: – The –http-host option sets the address, e.g. “–http-host=2001:db8::1″. By default, both :: and 0.0.0.0 are used. – The –http-port and –https-port options set the port numbers. By default, 8080 is used for HTTP, and 8443 for HTTPS. – The TLS credentials are configured with –http-cert (public certificate), –http-key (private key), –http-ca (optional CA) and –http-crl (optional CRL).
– RTSP server IP address and port are updated similarly. Use –rtsp-host and –rtsp-port respectively.
– The –miface-addr option does not exist anymore. To select the multicast output interface, use –miface instead, e.g. –miface=eth0.
– The Windows version will only work with Windows XP SP2 or later. Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP < SP2, Windows 2003 SP0 are now unsupported.

Important changes for packagers:
– The default builds now assume that the operating system uses UTF-8 for its file systems and files content (except the Windows port). If this is not acceptable, pass –enable-non-utf8 to the configure script. Non-UTF-8 file systems support will be removed in future versions.
– The VLC plugins path can be overridden with the VLC_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable. The –plugin-path command line option was removed.
– The default tarballs are now compressed with XZ/LZMA: .tar.xz
– OSS support is not compiled on Linux by default, pass –enable-oss to the configure script if you use OSSv4 or really want to use OSS emulation.
– The webplugins has moved to git://git.videolan.org/npapi-vlc.git
