Department of Justice | Email this | Comments - VLC hits version 2.0: brings presents to all the platforms
Open-source friend to all the video codecs, VLC media player, has hit version 2.0, bringing with it a raft of new features across Mac OS, Windows and Unix versions. VideoLAN’s also brought the player kicking and screaming into this decade with a better (read; less Windows 98-looking) makeover. The PC version will include a new 64-bit edition, while Mac OS X users will get a new iTunes-esque look, playback for Blu-ray and a new native full screen mode for Lion. There’s also a new subtitle manager and support for multiple videos inside RAR files. There’s also two extra surprises; an iOS version makes a return to the fold, with the development of an Android version appearing in the change log. Willing to give the first release a try? The files are available for your platform of choice at the source link below.

9to5Mac | VideoLAN, VLC Change log | Email this | Comments - Tesla’s Model X struts its stuff on video, gets serenaded by Elon Musk
We may have attended the Model X premiere, but despite us pleading for a ride-along, Tesla PR insisted only those who’d plunked cash for a pre-order that evening would get the chauffeur treatment. Thankfully there’s YouTube user TheSpeedRead, who either threw down enough cash or was swift enough to evade security, slipping into a Model X and gratuitously posting it for all to see. In the video above you’ll catch a glimpse of the interior, which features the same 17-inch touchscreen as in the Model S. In addition, a Tesla employee muses about the advantages of its dual motor AWD system and low center of gravity as he sashays the crossover through a slalom course outside Tesla’s design HQ. Our friends at Autoblog Green also culled a video from SmartPlanet featuring the company’s CEO, Elon Musk, reflecting on the advantages of the Model X’s unique “Falcon Wing” rear doors and touting the advantages of not having a space-hogging combustion engine in its front — enabling the front trunk, or Frunk, to serve as a crumple zone “two to three times greater” than in competing vehicles. Get the full sales pitch from the entrepreneur extraordinaire after the break.

vivo Pad trademarked with European IP Office
vivo trademarked several product names last year, one of which was the "vivo Pad" tablet that was expected to arrive in January. However, that didn't happen, and months later, there's still no word from vivo about its first tablet. But it looks the company will soon enter the tablet category since a vivo device, believed to be a tablet, bagged TUV certification earlier this month, and now the vivo Pad name has been trademarked with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO). The vivo Pad is trademarked under Class 9, which covers several product categories, including tablet...

Samsung Galaxy F42 5G seems to be a rebranded Galaxy A22 5G
Samsung's Galaxy F42 5G first surfaced last month when it received its Wi-Fi certification, and today it's back again, this time with the Bluetooth certification. This signifies that it's getting closer to launch. The weird thing is that the certification for the Galaxy F42 5G is shared with the one for the recently unveiled Galaxy A22 5G, and this strongly hints at the fact that the F42 5G may be nothing but a rebranded version of the A22 5G. It wouldn't be the first time Samsung did something like this with the F series rebranding products from the A series, in fact it's been pretty much...
