I can't find where to download libvlc. In fact I already use it in a Windows application I'm developping but I don't remember where I got it and wanted to have a more recent version and the licence info as I read it is LGPL but still not sure. Thanks in advance.

In their wiki page :

Warning: Please, do not put pre-release test binaries or git-compiles on software sites or on user-forums. We've had bad experiences with this before and we do not appreciate it.

It seems that they want you to pull the code and compile it yourself.

this the code page: https://wiki.videolan.org/GetTheSource/

and this instruction on windows: https://wiki.videolan.org/Win32Compile/

Good luck!
