Hi All

An update of VP (0.7.1) is now available from http://if.anu.edu.au/SW/VP.html

If you haven't seen it before, it's a replacement for vic on the AG display machine (and anywhere else you'd use vic for decoding video), and is designed to be more flexible and more automated than vic. See the page above for all the neat details.

This incremental update includes:
 - (working) support for encrypted streams
 - rtcp-bye support to clean up sources that have left
 - ageing out of sources that have dropped out
 - various UI tweaks, cleanups and performance enhancements 
 - name-resolution for unicast connections
     (watch out on single-machine nodes on unicast links, where vic in capture/transmit mode can snaffle the listening socket; this varies a bit by OS, to be resolved)

Thanks to everyone who sent in bug reports and suggestions! Please keep them coming (to vp at if.anu.edu.au). Yes, I know the web page material needs a serious cleanup and update.

Cheers,
	Markus
