I did look at removing phonon4qt5-backend-vlc. It also removes a ton of KDE packages.

Those need at least one backend installed, so just add the -gstreamer or -null backend first before removing the vlc one. But we have updated phonon packages coming into the test repo that should fix all the backends, anyway.

No, the new vlc's libvlc5 has a Breaks for Stretch's 0.9.0 phonon packages, which is why I've backported 0.9.1-2. That sorts everything out.

You lost me. Must have a mental block. What am I supposed to do?

Either wait until we get the new phonon packages in the test repo, or install phonon4qt5-backend-gstreamer and then remove phonon4qt5-backend-vlc. KDE requires at least one of those backends be installed, so when the new vlc wants to break and remove the -vlc backend, apt isn't smart enough to replace it automatically with the gstreamer one--instead it wants to remove most of KDE.

That was my plan, to wait. This post, the no, confused me. as response to my comment I was going to wait. Sorry for the confusion.

Installed fine using MXPI but it brings back my problem with audio & video files breaking up. I will revert to 2.2.8-2.
